BARBECUED CHICKEN FAJITA SKEWERS

Get the kids in the kitchen to prepare this easy BBQ chicken recipe, then assemble together with creamy guacamole on tortilla wraps

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 40m

Yield Makes 6-8 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 limes , plus wedges to serve
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , crushed or finely grated
4 chicken breasts
3 mixed coloured peppers
1 red onion
2 ripe avocados
1 lime
6 cherry tomatoes , halved
warmed tortillas , chopped coriander, soured cream or yogurt, plus chilli sauce for the grown-ups, to serve

Steps:

  • Make the marinade. In a large bowl, juice both the limes. Add the oregano, spices, olive oil and garlic, and mix together. Dice the chicken, then get your child to stir it through the marinade, and set aside.
  • Prepare the vegetables. Deseeding the peppers and halving the onion is tricky, so do this yourself. Children aged from about seven or above can cut them into chunks using a child-friendly knife.
  • Make your skewers. Carefully thread alternate pieces of chicken, peppers and onion onto your skewers. Smaller children might find this a little hard, so the best way is to stab the ingredients and push them up the skewers. When you've used up all the ingredients, set aside. Can be made several hours ahead and chilled until ready to cook.
  • Prepare the guacamole. Stone and peel the avocados, then tip into a bowl with the other ingredients. Get your child to use a potato masher to mash everything together and tip into a serving dish.
  • Cook the skewers. Heat a barbecue or griddle pan. Cook the skewers for 10-12 mins, turning, until they are cooked all the way through. A child from the age of eight can watch over a griddle and turn the skewers with a pair of tongs. Serve the skewers on heated tortillas with the guacamole, soured cream, chopped coriander, lime wedges on the side and chilli sauce for those who like a touch of spice.

BBQ CHICKEN FAJITAS



BBQ Chicken Fajitas image

Nothing says summer like BBQ chicken, but if you're looking for a new way to make it, look no further! This recipe is a Tex-Mex mashup of BBQ chicken and fajitas that is sure to be your new cookout favorite. Fajitas were originally made with skirt steak, but these days, we see it done with chicken, vegetables, seafood and so much more. The BBQ rub makes for tender, juicy and flavorful chicken. I love the addition of a poblano pepper to the charred pepper mix; it adds a bright and savory flavor pop. The sizzle sauce marries a traditional barbecue sauce with a double dose of bright acid from apple cider vinegar and lime. It's all topped with a generous drizzle of a smoky and spicy crema that ties the whole mashup together.

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 pound chicken tenders
3 tablespoons BBQ rub seasoning
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 Maui or sweet onion, halved and sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 orange bell pepper, stemmed and seeded, then sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 red bell pepper, stemmed and seeded, then sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 poblano pepper, stemmed and seeded, then sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/2 cup crema
1 chipotle from canned chipotles in adobo, minced, plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Eight 6-inch flour tortillas
Avocado oil, for toasting the tortillas
Lime wedges
Kosher salt
Avocado slices
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken tenders in a medium bowl by sprinkling the BBQ rub seasoning over the chicken to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, peppers and salt. Toss to coat in the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers and onions are softened and starting to char, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • While the onions and peppers are cooking, make the crema: Whisk together the crema, chipotle, adobo sauce and garlic salt. Set aside.
  • Prepare the sizzle sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, lime juice, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
  • Remove the peppers and onions to a bowl and set aside. Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil and the chicken. Sear until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Add the peppers and onions back to the skillet with the chicken. Toss to combine and cook until the vegetables are sizzling, about another minute. Add the sizzle sauce to the hot skillet, over the chicken and vegetables. Using tongs, toss to completely coat. Cook until the sauce starts to caramelize and the chicken is cooked through, another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • To serve: Heat the tortillas on a griddle pan lightly greased with avocado oil until warm. Stack in a tortilla warmer or wrap in foil or a clean kitchen towel as they are done.
  • Build the fajitas by placing the chicken topped with peppers and onions in the center of each tortilla. Squeeze some lime juice over the filling and season with salt. Top with the avocado, crema and cilantro. Serve.
