When I came up with the idea to make these, I had no recipe whatsoever, and even bought ingredients without consulting a recipe!
As I was going over my ingredients, I found out that besides spices (such as chili powder) I had gotten everything I needed to make these. I used a recipe from Women’s Health magazine.
What you will need: 3 chicken breasts, 2 red peppers, 2 green peppers, one white onion, 2 tsp olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, whole wheat tortillas and toppings. I used: lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese and sour cream.
What to do:
1. Chop onion, peppers, and chicken into slices.
2. Put olive oil in pan and grill onion and peppers for five minutes by themselves.
3. Add chicken, cook for additional 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is white inside and out. (This took me about 20 minutes.)
4. Put mixture with toppings on tortilla and enjoy!
This made me about three servings, so you will want to vary your ingredients according to how much you want to make.
Here’s a tip that I didn’t realize the first time I ate my fajitas: spreading the sour cream on the tortilla before everything else makes the eating experience much cleaner than when the sour cream is on top of everything. Silly and simple, but true.
You can also use shrimp, ground beef, or any other meat for your fajitas!
