This was born from taco leftovers, but I got sick of tacos. So....I made fajitas!
1/2 lb Chicken breast
Taco/fajita seasoning*
1/2 large green or red bell pepper, julienned
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
However many sliced onions you want
Shredded cheese
Salsa
Rice (optional)
Large tortilla shells
I cook for one person and got two or three servings out of this. You could really easily double the recipe and get a normal amount food.
Spray large skillet with nonstick spray and heat about a tablespoon of vegetable oil on medium-high heat. Add chicken (make sure to defrost first if using frozen chicken). Sprinkle seasoning on each side of the chicken breast to taste. Sautée chicken until cooked through, pulling it apart in chunks as it cooks. When chicken is fully cooked, add green peppers, tomatoes, and onions to the skillet. Add more seasoning to taste and sautée until vegetables are tender. Warm tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Fill the tortillas with cooked fajita fillings, shredded cheese, salsa, and rice.
For the rice, I like Lipton Rice Sides Mexican Rice. You can use white rice or any other kind of Mexican/Spanish rice. It also makes a good side dish if you don't want it in the fajitas.
*For the seasoning, you can use the packets, but I would only use about half the seasoning packet for this recipe, unless you double it and use a whole pound of chicken. I didn't have seasoning packets so I used ground cumin and cayenne pepper.
I also apologize that I don't have a picture. If you google "Chicken Fajitas" you get lots of them that look pretty much exactly like this does.
