I had a mess of colorful peppers from another recipe I made over the weekend that I needed to use up. Usually I will chop them up and place in a freezer bag to use in other recipes. But this time I decided it was time to have some fajitas.
The ease of this recipe is that there are no additional bowls or dishes to clean. I did use a small bowl to mix the seasoning in before adding to the chicken and pepper mixture but you can certainly skip that and put it right on top and mix it up.
This smelled so good while it was cooking away. When we sat down at the table I had all the toppings ready to go. You can top these with avocado, cheese, sour cream, or salsa. Which is your favorite?
