Fajitas, Shrimp, and Ribs
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Marinate the Meats
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef flank steak and chicken breast, coating well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Ribs
Season the pork ribs with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and bake the ribs for about 2 hours until tender.
Cook the Fajitas
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the onion and bell peppers until softened. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, cook the marinated beef and chicken until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Cook the Shrimp
In another skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil and add minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds, then add the shrimp. Cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes.
