Sizzilin' Chicken Fajitas

Here's what you'll need to make this delicious Mexican dish:

4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 whole white onion (diced)
1 whole green pepper (diced)
1 whole red pepper (diced)
1 whole tomato (diced)
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1 cup of salsa
2 tablespoons of fajita seasoning (or chili powder, cumin, and garlic)
10 flour tortillas
Shredded Mexican cheese
Shredded Lettuce
Sour cream

In a baking pan, bake the chicken breasts until fully done. Then, slice the chicken breast into strips. Each chicken breast should yield 7 or 8 strips.

In a saucepan, add 1/2 cup of vegetable oil and allow it to heat up. Next, add the onion, green pepper, red pepper, tomato, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of fajita seasoning. If you don't have fajita seasoning, you can use chili power, cumin, and garlic salt (1/2 tablespoon of each). Allow this to simmer over medium heat until the vegetables are soft (should take about 5-7 minutes).

Next, throw the strips of cooked chicken into the saucepan. Mix everything together for an additional 1 or 2 minutes over medium heat. Add 1 cup of salsa and allow to cook for additional minute.

Feel free to add more Fajita seasoning to suit your tastes.

Serve the mix on warm tortilla shells with sides of lettuce, sour cream, and shredded mexican cheese. Good side dishes to accompany this meal would be chips & salsa, refried beans, and guacamole.
