NOTE: This irecipe is for 2, so increase as needed if you cook for more than 1&2.


2-3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Olive oil
S&P to taste
Your favorite fajita seasoning (store bought or your own)
One-half each red, yellow, orange, and green bell peppers sliced into strips
One medium onion sliced
2-3 garlic cloves sliced
Flour tortillas
Extras: sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, cilantro, limes, whatever you like


Heat your broiler.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray it with a bit of oil.

Rub the olive oil on chicken breasts and place them on the baking sheet.

Sprinkle them with some S&P and the fajita seasonings.

Broil them without turning until cooked through about 7-8 minutes.

On another aluminum foil lined baking sheet that has been lightly sprayed with oil toss the sliced bell peppers, the onions, and the garlic with the olive oil; sprinkle a bit of your fajita seasonings on them as well. (Or just use S&P)

Roast them in a 450 or 500 degree oven until everything begins to brown nicely tossing with a pair of tongs several times.

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and place on a tortilla.

Add the pepper mixture on top and then add your favorite Extras.

Roll the tortillas up, eat, and enjoy.

NOTE: I have pictures of this recipe in preparation and completely ready to eat. I have tried to insert them a half a dozen different ways, including cut & paste, but nothing works. So sorry.

I just made steak fajitas last night. I used a CI grill on the stovetop. Fajitas rock, they are so easy and flavorful.

Chowhound, what is a CI grill? I love steak fajitas as well. You are so right. Delcious. Easy. Yummy. What's not to like?

The other side of my Cast Iron griddle has the grill side on it, like a grill pan. Lots of people grill steaks and burgers on them, too.
