Drunken Peppers and Onions

I came across this recipe which looked amazing for Flank Steak Fajitas Recipe : Sunny Anderson.  I didn’t have any flank steak so I decided to make my chicken fajitas.  The idea of drunken peppers and onions sounded amazing.  Plus the one reason I don’t usually make fajitas is everyone complains about all the peppers.

So I decided to make the chicken fajitas and drunken peppers separate as Sunny Anderson had made hers.  The peppers were great.  Although my chicken lacked a bit of flavor because it was not cooked with the peppers and onions.  It still is the best fajitas I have had.  Mix dinner up and add a little drunken peppers to the meal.

I winged the recipe and used what I had but they turned out great.  I was worried the jalapeño might be too spicy but it was just right.  Of course it depends on the jalapeño.

Drunken Peppers and Onions:

  • 1 red pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 jalapeño, seeded and sliced thinly
  • 1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 1/2 cup beer, we used modelo since we were having mexican food

In a large sauté pan heat oil.  Add in all the peppers and onions and sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper and add the beer, cover and cook another 8-10 minutes until the peppers and onions are almost caramelized.

Use to top fajitas, hot dogs, or anything your heart desires.  I think this would make a great dip as well if you added some cream cheese and yogurt.
