Chipotle Pork Fajitas

  • 4

Ingredients

  • 2 canned chipotle chiles in adobo plus 2 teaspoon adobo sauce
  • 2 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 T red-wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
  • 1 green pepper
  • 1 red pepper
  • 1 onion
  • sour cream
  • salsa
  • tortillas

Preparation

Step 1

Combine chipotle and sauce, garlic, orange juice, lime juice, vinegar, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper in a blender or mini food processor; blend or process until the chipotle is chopped and the mixture is relatively smooth. Pour into a sealable plastic bag, add pork and seal, squeezing out any excess air from the bag. Turn to coat with the marinade. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.

2. Preheat grill to high or heat a large indoor grill pan over high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade (discard marinade). Grill the pork, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted diagonally into the center of the meat registers 145° F, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Fry onions and peppers. Heat tortillas. Serve with peppers, onions, sour cream and salsa on tortillas.
