Ingredients

For the Marinade
1/2 cup Vegetable oil
1/2 cup Lime juice
1 cup Tequila (optional)
1/4 cup Tomato paste
2 Garlic cloves -- minced
1 Whole jalapeno pepper
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Chili powder
1/2 tsp Cumin

1 1/2 pounds Boneless Chicken breasts, or skirt steak, cut into strips
10 Flour tortillas

3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
1 Large bell pepper -- cut into
1 Large onion -- cut into strips
1 Large tomato -- cut into chunks

In a glass bowl or baking dish, combine 1/2 cup oil, lime juice, tequila, tomato paste, garlic, jalapeno, salt, chili powder, and cumin. Blend well. Add chicken, cover, and marinate in refrigerator at least 6 hours or overnight.
