Chicken Fajitas


OK, so I was lazy on the pictures for this one and also realized I did not gather all of the ingredients for this picture so pay attention:
2/3 C of water, 1/3 C of soy sauce, 1 1/2 T of Worcestershire sauce, 1 C of honey, 1/4 t of ginger, 1/4 t of garlic powder, crushed red pepper to taste, as much chicken as you need. I used frozen chicken tenderloins.


Adding the garlic powder


Worcestershire sauce


the ginger


Mix all around together in bag and let marinate overnight (or like me I did it before work so it only marinated for 9 hours or so)


You grill the chicken


Chop the chicken to the size you like your fajita meat: bite size, strips whatever...


Saute some onions and peppers until they are tender, warm up your tortillas, grate some cheese, get out the sour cream, make some rice or beans (whatever you eat on your fajitas)


Roll into a tortilla, my chef husband whipped up some homemade guacamole and salsa to go along with the meal


YUM YUM! Oh and he blended ice and lemonade to have an icy drink with our meal...maybe he should have his own cooking blog!!
Michael's comments: "This chicken is so tasty!" and then later "That chicken was so good it makes you want to slap your momma" And let me clarify as his mother reads this blog that is just an expression...there will be no slapping of mommas involved with this recipe! :)
Easy and Delicious!

Easy BBQ Pork Sandwiches

I hate to have one of those blogs that never gets updated! We have been really busy this summer going out of town or eating old stand-bys. Here is another quick and easy one:


All you need is a crockpot, bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce, and pork loin in the amount that you want. This pork loin made about 5 sandwiches.


Place the meat in the crock pot and cover with the BBQ sauce. Cover the pot and set on the lowest setting. This picture looks sick...I know! I let this cook from 8-5. I love meals that you can come home to that require little effort.


Then tear the meat apart with forks. It will be very tender. You can chop it to your desired size.


And serve on sandwiches, buns, or however you like. (Try to take the picture before you take a bite out!) We like our sandwiches with coleslaw!
