oven-baked chicken fajitas

This is one recipe I want to rave about. I love fajitas, but I’ve don’t make them because I was under the impression that they were difficult to make. False. Wrong. Huge misconception. This recipe is E-Z.

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
• 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tsp chili powder
• 2 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 1 large bell pepper, seeded and sliced (I use half a green and half a red)
• 12 flour tortillas
• Toppings such as cheese, sour cream, and guacamole – if desired

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place chicken strips in a greased 13×9 baking dish.
2. In a small bowl combine the oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt
3. Drizzle the spice mixture over the chicken and stir to coat.
4. Next add the tomatoes, chilies, peppers, and onions to the dish and stir to combine.
5. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Serve on tortillas with desired toppings.

I’m serious. De-lish.

PS. Oh yeah and one other thing I decided to do in 2012 is…

16.  Plan 12 parties/get-togethers/fiestas/events. I got started and planned something last Sunday. Check. Eleven more to go.
