"miniskirt " beef fajitas chili
My family loves skirt steak fajitas...this chili is inspired by my beef fajitas and comes together quickly using precooked and seasoned fajita strips, chopped into what I jokingly call "mini skirts". Then add peppers, onions and spices and simmer together. You can serve it up topped with optional fajita toppings. It is another tailgate favorite for us!

2Add spicy tomato juice to veggies, meat, spices, au jus mix and tomatoes in the chili pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and reduce heat slightly and continue cooking at a simmer. Stir occasionally to keep from sticking. Cook the chili until meat is tender (1 ½ hours.)
