Mix all ingredients, set aside 1/4 cup. Marinade chicken or steak at least 3 hours in remaining marinade (the longer you marinade, the better the flavor).

Heat the barbecue grill! Grill your meat until tender (don't overcook, meat will be dry). When the meat is done, slice into desired sized pieces for your fajitas.

Slice green peppers and onions into desired sized pieces and place in a sheet of alumumin foil that is large enough to wrap your veggies in, add remaining marinade. Wrap up tightly in foil and place on grill. Cook until tender (20-30 min.).
