Cooking Instructions
- Fill half the fire box with charcoal, light and wait 5 minutes, then place the skillet of vegetables on the indirect side. Allow the grill to heat to 400°F (205°C)...about 15 minutes. This will infuse more smoky flavor to the vegetables and allow them to soften a bit.
- When the grill reaches 400°F (205°C), move the iron skillet to the direct side of the grill over the charcoal. Stir occasionally to prevent to much charring. As soon as the onion begin to look transparent add the chicken to the skillet. Cook 5 minutes.
- Move the skillet back to the indirect side and place the skirt steak on the direct side. Grill steak 2 minutes each side or until it reaches your preferred doneness.
- Remove skillet of chicken and vegetables. Slice skirt steak across the meat grain so it is not stringy. Serve immediately with the sides.
- To make soft tortilla quickly, run water over both sides of the tortilla, put it on a plate and place it in a microwave on high for 30 seconds.
