Ingredients:

2     tablespoons   vegetable oil
2     tablespoons   fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons   tequila
2     teaspoons     minced jalape�o chili
1     teaspoon      grated lime peel
8     ounces        beef skirt steak - (to 10 oz)
                    into 1"-wide strips
6     large         green onions
8     squares       green bell pepper - (1" squares)
                    Salt
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
4                   flour tortillas - (6" to 7" dia)

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk first 5 ingredients in 8- by 8- by 2-inch glass baking dish to blend. Add beef and green onions; stir to coat. Let stand 10 minutes.
Thread beef onto 2 long metal skewers. Thread green onions and bell pepper squares onto 2 long metal skewers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Grill beef and vegetables until beef is cooked to desired doneness and vegetables are slightly charred and almost tender, turning often, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, grill tortillas until warm and beginning to brown in spots, about 1 minute per side.
Using fork, push beef and vegetables off skewers onto work surface; chop coarsely. Place 2 tortillas on each plate. Divide filling among tortillas; roll up and serve.
This recipe yields 2 servings; can be doubled.
Comments: Serve grated cheese, sour cream, guacamole and salsa with the fajitas. Begin with Margaritas, and finish with coffee ice cream drizzled with Kahl�a.
