Ingredients
- ¼ cup lime juice
- ⅓ cup water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon liquid smoke
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Whisk all ingredients and refrigerate until ready to use. Marinate chicken, pork, or beef in the marinade for at least two hours, or up to overnight.
Notes
- Recipe tips.
- Store fresh fajita marinade in an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to 1 month. Discard any used marinade.
- Our favorite meat to use includes boneless, skinless chicken breasts or chicken thighs, skirt steak, and flank steak. Using about ½ cup of marinade for every 1 pound of meat is a great ratio to use.
- Ideally, the meat should sit for 6-8 hours in the fridge. Let the meat stand at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before cooking.
- Add flavor with our Fajita Seasoning. It includes spices like cumin and chili powder, which pack an extra punch!
- Serve in flour or corn tortillas and include toppings: Homemade Salsa, diced avocado, cheese, Pico de Gallo, sour cream, and Guacamole.
