Let stand for 10 minutes and serve the salsas with red, blue and corn tortilla chips.
- In a mixing bowl combine all of the ingredients and whisk. You may use a food processor to prepare the marinade To Grill or Sear the Fajitas: Marinate the skirt steak and the chicken separately for about 23 hours Prepare your charcoal grill making sure that there is enough charcoal for a hot grill. (You may use a very hot saute pan or skillet to sear the meats if a charcoal grill is not available.) Cook the skirt steak for about 23 minutes on each side. Cook the chicken for about 34 minutes on each side until cooked thoroughly. Let stand for several minutes then cut into strips. Keep warm until service. Saute the peppers and onions with olive oil and place on a platter. Arrange the skirt steak and the chicken on a platter with the peppers and onions. Serve immediately
- In a mixing bowl combine the ripe avocado with the skin and seed removed, the lime juice, garlic, onions and tomatoes, and jalepeno pepper and cilantro sprigs and mash with a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the fajitas with warm flour tortillas and the condiments listed above.
SALSA FRESCA
This quick fresh tomato salsa will always be best when tomatoes are in season. But you can pump up the flavor with a little lime juice if the flavor of your tomatoes is a little dull. Juicy tomatoes will yield a more watery salsa than pulpy roma tomatoes.

Steps:
- Place minced onion in a bowl and cover with cold water. Add vinegar and let sit for 5 minutes or longer. Drain and rinse with cold water.
- In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients and stir in onions. (If your tomatoes are full of flavor, you won't need lime juice.) Ideally, let stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before eating so that flavors will blend and ripen.
