Fajitas Place a piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap on a counter top
or cutting board. Place 1 chicken breast on top and cover with  another
piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap. With a mallet, pound  the chicken
breast 1/8 inch thick. Continue in the same way until all  the breasts
are flattened. Set aside until ready to cook, or cover  and refrigerate
for up to 2 days.  When ready to cook the fajitas, finely grate the
onion. In a large  nonreactive dish, mix the onion and its juice with
the orange juice  and soy. Remove the waxed paper or plastic wrap, and
place the  chicken in the onion-orange-soy mixture. Turn to coat both
sides. Set  aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to 45
minutes,  turning once or twice.  If grilling, prepare a charcoal fire
and allow the coals to burn  until they are mostly covered with white
ash and a few red spots show  through here and there. This will take
about 40 minutes. When the  fire is ready, place the chicken breasts on
the grill rack, directly  above the coals. Cook until no longer pink,
but still moist in the  center, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side.  If
frying, divide the oil between two large frying pans and set over
medium-heat until the oil begins to smoke. (You can use one frying  pan
to save on dishes and cook the fajitas in several rounds.) Add as  many
chicken breasts as will fit in one uncrowded layer. Cook until  no
longer pink but still moist in the center, about 1 1/2 minutes on  each
side. Remove and drain off any liquid from the pan. Continue  cooking
another round until all the breasts are cooked. Cut the  chicken into
thin strips. To assemble, place about 1/3 cup of chicken  in the middle
of a tortilla. Top with some shredded lettuce, sour  cream, and Green
Olive-Cilantro Salsa. Fold and serve.  Recipe by:
