Fajita Filling

Method

Preparation of Ingredients

1

Slice the Vegetables

Wash and slice the green bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

2

Prepare the Chicken

If using chicken, cut the chicken breast into thin strips. If using steak or shrimp, prepare accordingly.

3

Mix the Fajita Seasoning

In a small bowl, mix the fajita seasoning with olive oil to form a marinade.

Cooking

4

Marinate the Chicken

Place the sliced chicken in a bowl, add the prepared marinade, and let it sit for at least 15 minutes.

5

Grill the Vegetables

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

6

Cook the Chicken

In the same skillet, add the marinated chicken and cook for about 7-10 minutes until fully cooked and no longer pink. If using steak or shrimp, adjust cooking time as necessary.

7

Combine Ingredients

Once the chicken is cooked, add the grilled vegetables back into the skillet and toss everything together for an additional 2 minutes.

Serving

8

Assemble the Fajitas

Serve the fajita filling on a plate or in a tortilla, and top generously with shredded Jack cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo.
