You have to try it before you place any judgement. Its worth the time!

How about chicken recipes?

I am a total fajita 'ho.

My first fajitas ever were in Houston, in 1982. My college roomate brought me home for fall break, and took me to try this new dish that basically was not being served anywhere else at the time. I think we were at Pappasito's (sp?). I remember the meal like it was yesterday. They piled out table high with sliced meats, fixin's, and hot flour tortillas. The clouds parted, the angels sang . . .

-small can of apricot halves, juice and all
-small can of pineapple chunks, juice and all
-slice several jalapenos sliced thin seeds and all
-hand full of garlic slicked thin
-beer you enjoy

1. sauté jalopenos after a minute or so add garlic saute garlic but do not brown.
2. add apricot halves and pineapple chunks saute for a minute or two
3. add juice from canned apricots and pineapples as well as one beer of your choice
4. reduce to about half of original volume
5. pour off about 3/4 of juice and some of the fruit/peppers into blender
6. blend till smooth, chill marinate meat for 2-3 hours i've gone over night, it came out well.
7. take remaining 1/4 of juice and majority of chunks and lightly blend so to cut chunks of fruit down creating a salsa of sorts.
