Directions

  1. Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and onion powders, lemon juice and ginger in jar; shake to mix well and dissolve sugar. Let marinade stand in sealed jar overnight. Reserve about 1 c.. Pour remainder over beef and marinate, covered, 2 hrs or possibly overnight in refrigerator. Remove beef from marinade and grill over very warm coals for a short time; it should take only about 10 min per steak if meat is 3/4-inch thick or possibly less. Brush meat with reserved marinade two or possibly three times while cooking. Chop meat with a cleaver into bite-size pcs. Fold into hot flour tortillas and serve with pico de gallo.
  2. Makes about 1 qt marinade.

  4. Notes: As a food safety precaution, don't reuse liquid in that meat has been marinated. The secret to tender fajitas is a warm fire and short cooking time. Meat should be no more than 3/4-inch thick. Flank steak, boneless sirloin, tenderized round steak, or possibly boneless chicken breasts or possibly chunks may be substituted for skirt steak.
