Dad loves to grill, but this Father’s Day we’re taking over the grill. Do the same and surprise him with a special Father’s Day dinner: fajitas! Pamper him this year with these juicy fajitas marinated in his favorite soft drink. The soda helps to tenderize the fajitas, while the chipotle adds a subtle spicy layer. Throw a few veggies on the grill while your fajitas cook for an easy side dish. And don’t forget to heat up a few tortillas and slice up a few avocados. Serve these fajitas up family style along with a few cold sodas. Dad will love them!
