BLACKSTONE CHICKEN, STEAK AND SHRIMP FAJITA
Fajitas are a crowd favorite, so we created this recipe to feed a crowd. Tender chicken breasts, juicy skirt steak, briny shrimp and colorful peppers all get tossed in a chipotle-lime marinade to really amp up the flavor. Everything is prepared ahead of time then goes on a super-hot Blackstone® flat-top style griddle to sizzle away and cook in a matter of minutes. Your guests or family are then free to customize their own fajitas with an array of toppings.

Steps:
- Whisk together the lime juice, oil, garlic, chile powder, oregano, cumin and 3 tablespoons salt in a medium bowl. Combine all the onions and peppers in a large bowl. Put the chicken, steak and shrimp in 3 individual bowls and evenly divide the marinade between the vegetables and proteins (about 3 tablespoons each). Toss each to coat and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Set all 4 burners to high on a 36-inch Blackstone® Griddle Cooking Station and preheat for 10 minutes.
- Spread a tablespoon of oil on the griddle and add the onions and peppers in a single layer. Cook, tossing with a large metal spatula occasionally, until starting to soften and brown in spots, about 3 minutes. Push the pepper mixture to one half of the griddle then add the chicken in a single layer to the empty half of the griddle; cook until browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and push closer to the peppers. Add the steak in a single layer and cook until browned on one side and the chicken is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Place the chicken on top of the peppers and flip the steak so it is closer to the peppers. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until browned on one side and the steak is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss everything together and spread in a single layer. The shrimp will continue to cook through. Cook, tossing occasionally until the peppers are soft and everything is well combined, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large serving platter.
- Scrape the griddle clean with your spatula and cook the tortillas until hot and pliable, about 30 seconds per side.
- Serve the fajitas immediately with lime wedges, cilantro leaves, salsa, guacamole, sour cream and shredded cheese.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your fajitas come out perfectly.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your fajitas will taste. Look for fresh, plump shrimp, crisp vegetables, and flavorful spices.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp and vegetables, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them soggy.
- Cook the shrimp and vegetables in batches: If you're cooking a large amount of shrimp and vegetables, cook them in batches. This will ensure that they all cook evenly.
- Use a hot skillet: When cooking the shrimp and vegetables, make sure you use a hot skillet. This will help them sear and develop a nice flavor.
- Season the shrimp and vegetables well: Don't be afraid to season the shrimp and vegetables generously. This will help them taste their best.
- Serve the fajitas immediately: Fajitas are best served immediately after they're cooked. This will ensure that they're hot and flavorful.
