STEAK FAJITA FOIL PACKS

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine steak, peppers, onions, oil, and seasonings. Toss to combine and coat well.
• Portion out the steak mixture into the center of four 12x12 inch pieces of foil. Fold foil tightly around the steak and veggies.
• Grill over high heat for about 7-8 minutes on each side. Serve immediately with tortillas and desired toppings.

FOIL PACK STEAK FAJITAS

Steps:

• Place the sliced flank steak in a large, zip-top bag. Set aside 2 teaspoons of the fajita seasoning.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining fajita seasoning, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, lime juice, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add to sliced steak in bag and seal. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
• Meanwhile, place sliced peppers and onions in a medium bowl. Toss with remaining tablespoon of oil and remaining fajita seasoning. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Tear off 6-8 large sheets of aluminum foil. Spray each sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Dived flank steak, peppers and onions evenly between foil sheets. Seal foil tightly around fajita mixture.
• Grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until peppers are tender and steak is cooked to desired doneness.
• Serve in flour tortillas with your choice of toppings.

FOIL PACKET FOOD: STEAK FAJITAS

Steps:

• Slice your steak thinly, against the grain. If you wish to marinate it do so. We typically crack open a tasty beer and marinate our steak, with seasonings, in the beer for about 30 minutes before proceeding.
• Thinly slice your bell peppers and onions, then place in a bowl with some olive oil. Season this with a little salt and pepper if you wish.
• Cut four large pieces of foil (about 18 inches) and four slightly smaller pieces of parchment paper (about 16 inches). Place one piece of parchment paper on top of each piece of foil.
• If you are using the minute rice, place 1/4 cup of the rice in the center of the packet first.
• Then, using your tongs, place 1/4 of your steak on top of the rice.
• Next, add 1/4 of your peppers and onions on and around the steak.
• Fold the long sides together and form a seam. Then roll the short sides up to form additional seams.
• Refrigerate up to three days or freeze until time to go camping.
• Start your campfire or heat up your grill so that your heat source is ready. If using wood or charcoal, let the flames die out prior to cooking your food.
• Place your foil packets over heat for 15-20 minutes, flipping about halfway through. If you are also heating up tortillas in a foil packet, throw them on for the last 5 minutes.
• Carefully pull the packets off and let them cool for a minute or two.
• Open them up and assemble away using whatever optional ingredients you have brought along. We typically add shredded cheese and salsa at a minimum, sour cream and avocado when we have space to bring them.

STEAK FAJITA FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Heat an outdoor grill to medium-high, direct heat (400 to 425ºF). Tear 8 (8-inch long) sheets of aluminum foil. Stack 1 sheet on top of another sheet, then repeat with the remaining 6 sheets. You should end up with 4 stacks of foil.
• Divide 1 cup dried long-grain rice between the 4 packets. Thinly slice 1 small red or yellow onion, 1 medium red bell pepper, and 1 medium green bell pepper, and divide the pepper and onions over the rice.
• Mince 2 garlic cloves. Thinly slice 1 pound flank steak across the grain. Sprinkle the steak with the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, and toss to combine. Divide the steak over the vegetables.
• Whisk together 2 cups water with 1/4 cup lime juice. Pour 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon of the liquid over each pile of steak and rice. Tightly seal each packet. Grill or roast until the rice is cooked and the steak is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with sour cream and avocado.

FOIL-PACKET CHICKEN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Tear off four 12-by-18-inch pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil and set aside.
• Toss the chicken with the onion and bell peppers in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the fajita seasoning, oil, adobo sauce, cumin and lime juice in a separate small bowl. Pour over the chicken mixture and toss gently with tongs to coat evenly.
• Divide the chicken and vegetable mixture among the 4 sheets of foil. Bring up two short sides to meet and fold over a few times to close tightly, then fold the remaining sides in and up to seal the packet completely. Repeat with the remaining foil packets.
• Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven, place the packets on in a single layer and return to the oven until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have softened slightly, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Warm the tortillas by wrapping them in a clean kitchen towel and microwaving until warm, about 40 seconds. Serve the fajitas with the tortillas, rice and toppings of your choice.

GRILLED BEEF FAJITA PACKS

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (20x18-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. In large bowl, mix beef, bell peppers, onion, seasoning mix and water.
• Place 1/4 of beef mixture on center of each foil sheet. Bring up 2 sides of foil over beef mixture so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
• Place packets on grill over low heat. Cover grill; cook 13 to 18 minutes, rotating packets 1/2 turn after about 6 minutes, until beef is cooked to desired doneness and peppers are tender.
• To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape. Serve beef mixture with tortillas, salsa and sour cream.

EASY FLANK STEAK FAJITAS

Steps:

• Place steak in a large resealable plastic bag. Add lime juice, vegetable oil, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to the steak in bag. Seal bag; turn to coat steak.
• Marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Drain meat; discard marinade. Center meat on a sheet (12x18 inches) of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil. Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Center sweet peppers, onion, and garlic on another sheet (12x18 inches) of heavy duty aluminum foil. Repeat steps above to make another foil packet.
• Wrap tortillas tightly in heavy duty aluminum foil.
• Bake meat and vegetable foil packets 30 to 35 minutes or until meat is desired doneness (145 degrees F for medium rare) and vegetables are tender, adding tortillas to the oven for the last 10 minutes of baking or until heated through.
• Open packets carefully by cutting along top fold with a sharp knife, allowing steam to escape; then open top of foil packet. Thinly slice the meat.
• Fill warm tortillas with meat and pepper mixture to serve. If desired, top with guacamole, salsa, and/or sour cream.
