You all know fajitas are my favorite summer treat.  These are no exception. Simply put – they are EXCELLENT! That’s all I’m saying now go get to it !

This idea came from KITTENCAL over at Recipezaar, but I used my own fajita recipe.

Mango Pork Fajitas          

 with

Chipotle Sour Cream

 

 Cube:

          3-4 Very Ripe Mangos Frozen will work fine too

Set aside.
Chop a bunch of Cilantro and set aside
Mix together in quart size zip loc bag:
          Sour Cream
          Chipotle Sauce – quantities will vary to your taste
You can buy Chipotle Sauce in small cans – they come with or without the actual pepper – I like without because that’s less heat.  You can also use the dry chipotle peppers Kev gave us from Oaxaca for Christmas. I would try to avoid the seeds though.
When you get to serving cut a small hole in the corner of the bag and squeeze over the fajita. OR just put it in a bowl and let folks serve themselves.
Place in large zip top bag:
          2 Cups Julienne Red Onions
         
          1 Cup Julienne Red Peppers
         
          1 Cup Julienne Green Peppers

 Leave open for marinade.

In another large zip top bag place:

          2# Pork  Chops, Loin or Tenderloin will work

 Leave open for marinade.

 

In Large Measuring Cup:

          ¾ Cup Lime juice


          ¾ Cup Olive Oil (fill to 1 ½ Cup Line)


          ¾ Cup Worcestershire Sauce (fill to 2 ¼ Cup Line)


          1-2 tsp Ground Chipotle - I crumbled up the peppers Kev gave us – watch out for those seeds – they pack a punch!  When you’re making regular fajitas you put in 1-2 tsp Cumin here.


          2 Tbsp Fresh Minced Garlic

          2 tsp Tabasco Sauce

Wisk to mix and pour half of mixture over vegetables and other half in bag of meat.  Seal both bags. Marinade 1-2 Hours. Rotate bag frequently.
Pre-heat grill.  Drain marinade and grill on a grill topper (flat pan with small holes) so the meat & veggies won’t fall through the regular grate.
Start meat before veggies as they take longer to cook.
