Seared cod with chimichurri sauce

Cinco de Mayo is coming up!  And there is nothing that I love more than a Mexican holiday!  Actually there is nothing I love more than Mexican food and margaritas!  For years i've been throwing a Cinco de Mayo party with tons of different Mexican food options, drinks, and even a little Mexican fiesta station on Pandora.

Fajitas

Who doesn't love Mexican food?  I mean really, not loving Mexican food is like not loving sunshine.  Fajitas, tacos, nachos, burritos...I mean the list is endless and delicious.  And don't even get me started on margaritas, that's a different post all together.  Today I'll try to focus on these fajitas, I did steak but chicken is fare game also.  There is so much flavor going on, you really can keep it simple or go all out with as many toppings as you can think of.  In my world, fajitas make an awesome dinner party idea, add some chips, guacamole, and salsa as an appetizer, a pitcher of margaritas, some Mexican tunes off pandora, and wham bam you have an excellent party, theme and all!
