LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (20x18-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. In large bowl, mix beef, bell peppers, onion, seasoning mix and water.
  • 2 Place 1/4 of beef mixture on center of each foil sheet. Bring up 2 sides of foil over beef mixture so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  • 3 Place packets on grill over low heat. Cover grill; cook 13 to 18 minutes, rotating packets 1/2 turn after about 6 minutes, until beef is cooked to desired doneness and peppers are tender.
  • 4 To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape. Serve beef mixture with tortillas, salsa and sour cream.

We really didn't enjoy this recipe all that much. As much as we love to grill and have fajitas, we thought it would be great. Since it was packet cooked, the meat ended up getting steamed in liquid and not seared. There was no char and it tasted chewy like boiled beef. I think if we had just done the ingredients on the stovetop, they would have been fine.
