Mexican Main Dishes Fajita Recipes Chicken Mexican Botana Platter 4.7 (34) 27 Reviews 3 Photos At the very tip of Texas, this beef and chicken fajita, bean, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream recipe has always been an all-in-one hit at restaurants or any get-together! Serve with Spanish rice and fresh warm flour tortillas! You can also use grilled shrimp or sausage as your meat and save time by using tortilla chips in the bag, but the taste won't be authentic.

Rub beef and chicken with fajita seasoning and 2 teaspoons garlic powder. Cut beef and chicken into 1-inch strips, and set aside. Warm refried beans in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir salt, lemon pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder into mashed avocados. Set aside. Heat corn oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cut tortillas in half, then cut in half again to make 4 triangular pieces per tortilla. Place as many tortilla pieces into the skillet as fit without overlapping, and fry until crisp; remove crisp tortillas to paper towels. Repeat this process with remaining tortilla pieces. Discard oil, and wipe out skillet. Return skillet to medium heat, and stir in beef, chicken, bell pepper, and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes, then stir in cilantro. Layer the tortilla pieces along the bottom of a large baking dish. Spread refried beans evenly over tortilla pieces. Sprinkle cheese over beans, then spread meat mixture evenly on top. Bake in preheated oven until cheese and beans are bubbly, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and drop sour cream and guacamole by tablespoonfuls in various places across the top. Sprinkle tomatoes and jalapeños on top.
