Fajita Marinade

ThatJodiGirl's Note:

This is a very flavorful marinade to use when making fajitas. I use it to marinade my skirt or flank steak, it makes the meat so tender. I think I may have originally got this repcipe from a Tyler Florence show on the FN a few years back and I put my own twist on it.
