Directions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together soy sauce, vinegar, corn syrup, hot sauce, and pepper. Add leftover meat strips, bell peppers and onion and toss to coat.
  2. Set a large greased stove-top grill pan over medium-medium high heat.
  3. Grill meats and veggies 5 to 7 minutes, drizzling any remaining juices over the top, until vegetables are cooked to your liking and meat is heated through.
  4. Transfer mixture to a serving platter.
  5. Meanwhile, warm tortillas in the microwave or according to package directions.
  6. To make the guacamole, in a zip-top bag or medium bowl, mash avocado lightly.
  7. Then add tomato, garlic, lime juice and cilantro and combine.
  8. Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
  9. Serve fajitas with guacamole, some sour cream, and salsa on the side.
