Adventures in Southwest Cooking: Chipotle Steak Fajitas
I still consider myself pretty conservative when it comes to Santa Fean cooking. I'm fearful of big words (Calabacitas and Chicharrones and Chimichangas, oh my!), I steer clear of excessively long ingredient lists (like the 24 ingredients needed for the Veracruz-style Fish), and I am years away from even attempting homemade tortillas or sopaipillas. That being said, I am really growing to appreciate the flavors of green and red chile, chipotle seasoning, crushed red pepper, jalapenos, and other tastes of the Southwest. These aren't the type of fajitas you'd see in a Tex-Mex restaurant with peppers and onions and sizzling skillets of meat. Fajita is basically a general term for any type of grilled meat served in a tortilla, and the salsa (broadly defined as sauce) is more like guacomole. These steak fajitas have a yummy chipotle garlic marinade and are quick and easy to prepare. Enjoy! Chipotle-Marinated Steak Fajitas with C...
