Best Rib Eye Ever

A friend shared with us his secret to a delicious steak every time. It is a store bought merinade, that for me has been the only steak merinade I use. I've been using this marinade for about twenty years, and it has brought happiness into my life. I have not used any other merinade since trying this one, nor do I have any desire to try any other. For me the magic happens when you merinade your steaks over night. Place your rib eyes or steak of  your choice into a large zip lock bag, add half a bottle of the merinade. Let merinade over night or at less 2 hours turning bag whenever you go into your refrigerator. We prefer our steaks grilled, but cook to your liking. Perfect every time. Most grocery chains carry this marinade, it comes in "Original" and "Hickory Smoke" "Teriyaki" and "Hot and Spicy". We always use the original. I buy two bottles at a time, so that I always have it on hand.

Grilled to perfection

This steak was part of my Anniversary dinner, yum!

That included  a salad and homemade rolls

The merinade is "ALLEGRO"

               Fajita Chicken Salad
My husband and I love Fajitas, so I decided to make Fajita chicken salads. I simply cut up some boneless chicken breast into small strips. Place the chicken into a hot frying pan with about two tablespoons of olive oil, about half way through the cooking time add green peppers, cut into strips and chopped onion. I used McCormick's Fajita seasoning mix (one package). Finish cooking until the veggies are tender. We used a roman salad mix, cherry tomatoes, broccoli spears, some shredded cheddar cheese and topped it off with prepared Fajita Chicken, and a sweet and sour salad dressing. So good.
