I’m joining with Jen today for Tasty Tuesdays and this is not so much an exact recipe, as just a good idea for cooking up that chicken. Go on over to Jen’s and see all the other recipes that will be added to the party. You just might find a new one. Jen’s Apple Cinnamon cake looks fantastic, so I will definitely be grabbing her recipe for my files. Just my kind of easy!
Always looking for something to do with chicken breasts and given the fact that we love Mexican food, I came up with some easy Chicken Fajitas at home and we are really enjoying them. All I did was saute some sliced onions and green peppers in a little olive oil. Let them cook down to where they are golden and glazed.
Add 3 boneless chicken breasts (or enough for your family) seasoned with your favorite grill seasoning on the George Foreman grill, which is my go-to. We have a charcoal grill outside, but with the 2 of us, using the George is so much faster and easier for something like this. It’s not gourmet, but it’s good!
Shred a little Monterey Jack cheese, with some bottled salsa and sour cream. I bought some whole wheat tortillas which are really tasty too. You could really add whatever you like to these, like black beans or other beans, black olives or anything else you’d like to throw on there.
Slice up the chicken once it’s off the grill.
And serve up with the sautéed onions and green peppers. And prepare to say YUM!
They really are delish and fast to prepare! Just thought I’d pass this one along since we all eat lots of chicken these days and have to come up with something new occasionally. It’s quick and easy too. We both really love it, it’s filling, and maybe it’s fairly healthy also. Publix has boneless chicken breasts for $1.99 a lb. through today, so stock up.

Hi Rhoda,
Your kitchen is beautiful and I love the corner cabinet redo!
Mexican food is my all time favorite, perhaps 12 years in Houston made me a convert. I love easy and fast recipes and this one for fajitas sounds wonderful.
Have a great day!

I'm thinking the same thing as Kara, looking forward to the fresh peppers from my garden this summer. I do something akin to this several times a week. Even my picky young men eat this up…esp. when offered with cheese & salsa!
Misti of Studio M Designs says
I love making fajitas! They are really great with Chipotle Tabasco too…that’s my new thing, anything chipotle! Now, that’s tomorrow nights dinner. Thanks Rhoda!

I absolutely love fajitas, it is a weekly staple in our home. I have started puree-ing black beans with salsa and cumin to have along side. Yummy.
I my mouth is watering right now.
