Fast Chicken Fajitas

MAKES: 10 fajitas

COOK TIME: 10 Min

You can go to a restaurant for fajitas but, when you get past the steam and the sizzle, you're left with a small portion of chicken and a high price tag! Why not bring the sizzle to your own kitchen table with a lower calorie count and price tag?!

What You'll Need

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 large onions, each cut into 8 wedges
1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 to 1-1/4 pounds total), cut into 1/2-inch strips
2 tablespoons dry fajita seasoning
10 (8-inch) flour tortillas
1 cup salsa
4 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

What to Do

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and peppers, and saute 3 to 5 minutes, or until onions are tender, stirring occasionally.
In a small bowl, combine chicken and fajita seasoning until chicken is thoroughly coated.
Add chicken to skillet and cook 5 to 6 minutes, or until no pink remains in chicken and onions are browned, stirring frequently.
Distribute chicken mixture evenly over tortillas. Top with salsa and lettuce then roll up tortillas and serve immediately.

I have tried the fajita seasoning in a packet, and i didn't like it. Do they make it in a jar that would have a different taste?

Yes, actually I've always used bottled zesty Italian dressing as a marinade for the chicken when making fajita's or grilled chicken. The flavor is fantastic and everyone loves my fajita's. Simply cut chicken in bit size pieces, put in a large ziploc bag, pour in the bottle of dressing and the next evening, take out chicken, disgard dressing and fry up the chicken, green pepper and an onion. Then add a tomato cut up. Fill soft shell torillas and then top with sour cream. You'll love it!
