When in Doubt...make Fajitas!!

Ok, so Greek was a no-go due to the store being out of just about everything I needed and everything they had being too expensive. SO....I went with Steak and Chicken Fajitas!! Tender steak, chicken and veggies coated with yummy fajita seasoning. Here's the recipe..I like to improvise a lot!!

2tbs olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 sirloin steak (sliced into strips)
1 lb boneless/skinless chicken breast (sliced into strips)
1 medium yellow onion (halved and sliced)
1 yellow pepper (haved and sliced)
5 whole mushrooms (halved and sliced)
2 packages McCormick Fajita Seasoning
1 tsp Liquid Smoke
1 tsp Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning
1 tsp Lime Juice
1 pkg fresh tortillas

Topping Ideas: Shredded cheese, lettuce, tomato, fresh avocado, cilantro, sour cream, ranch dressing

Heat olive oil and garlic in large non-stick skillet, add steak and cook until browned, add chicken. add liquid smoke, creole seasoning, lime juice and 1 packet fajita seasoning. cook both until steak is tender and chicken is cooked through. Add Veggies one by one and 2nd packet of fajita seasoning. Stir. Cook until veggies are tender. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Seal tortillas in Foil and bake on center rack for about 7-8  minutes.

Assemble Fajita and add desired toppings! Enjoy!

I invited my special someone over for dinner and we topped our fajitas with homemade ranch dressing, lettuce and cheese. A simple meal, excellent company and delicious results! Can't ask for more than that.
