    • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded (save some seeds for a hotter flavor)
    • Juice of one lime
    • 1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped cilantro (or chopped flat leaf parsley)
    • Salt to taste

    RECOMMENDED GARNISHES

    • Chicken, beef and/or pork strips (marinated or not)
    • Chorizo in pieces
    • Peppers in strips
    • Spanish onion in strips
    • Corn in kernels (or in chunks)
    • Black beans, rinsed

    Other Sides

    • Small or medium tortillas
    • Corn chips
    • Shredded cheese
    • Tomato salsa
    • Chopped iceberg lettuce
    • Fresh cilantro
    • Limes, quartered

  • Preparation

    • In a large pot, combine the broth, spices and tequila using a whisk, bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes before transferring to the Fondussimo fondue pot.
    • In a blender, combine all the ingredients for the guacamole. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
    • Place all the garnishes in one or many plates and handle the raw meat with appropriate utensils.

    A few tips

    • To heat your tortillas, place a few on a perforated pizza pan or a splash guard placed on the Fondussimo baskets. The steam will heat them as your ingredients cook. Heat them up gradually throughout the meal.
    • Place a large plate at the center of the table to layout the cooked ingredients. This way, everyone can serve themselves at their own pace.
    • Do you have left over ingredients? Why not roll up the fajitas in advance for the lunches to come? Heated up in the microwave, they will (almost) be as delicious as the night of the meal.
