Recipe of the Week: BEEF & MANGO FAJITAS

For this week's recipe, I am sharing something that me and my in-laws would always cook out when we have barbeque parties. Yes, because Spring is just around the corner and we will have a lot of barbeque weekends once again.

I have yet to upload a photo of my own Beef&Mango Fajitas so come back as this entry will be edited. I am just too busy to upload them now. (which includes: checking these best wrinkle ream my cousin-in-law is bugging to check me out) I won't keep you long so check out the recipe below :). And oh yes, I try to substitute Mangoes with Peaches as Mangoes are hard to find here.

BEEF & MANGO FAJITAS
Prep Time: 10 Minutes

1 lb. beef sirloin steak, cut 1 inch thick
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tbsp fajita seasoning
1 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
1 cup thinly sliced red onion
8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
2 cups sliced mango (or peaches)

1.) Trim fat from steak, if necessary. Place steak in resealable plastic bag. For marinade mixture, stir together oil, lime juice, fajita seasoning, and oregano. Refrigerate 2 tablespoons of the marinade mixture; pour remainder over meat. Seal bag; refrigerate 4-24 hours, turning occasionally.

2.) Preheat grill to medium. Place onion slices on 18-inch square of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle with reserved marinade mixture. Bring up 2 opposite sides of foil and seal with double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose, leaving space for steam to expand. Wrap tortillas separately in heavy-duty foil.

3.) Drain steakl discard marinade. Grill steak 14 to 18 minutes for medium-rare or to desired doneness, turning once. Add foil package of onions to grill during last 10 minutes of grilling time. Add wrapped tortillas during last 5 minutes.

4.) Thinly slice meat. Serve with onions and sliced mango in warm tortillas.

Serves 4.
