Easy Baked Chicken Fajitas

Submitted by DebS 2

"My daughter, Melinda, gave me this recipe. Not as much mess as the usual Fajitas and much lighter. Easy to make for dinner after work and easy to clean up as well - and who doesn't like that idea! I use the Rotel fire roasted tomatoes with green chilies - just gives it a little more flavor. Lately, I have been making this into a rice bowl...omitting the tortillas."

These were a lot less work and mess than traditional fajitas with an excellent result! I don't know if I will want to go back to making them on the stove again. This was very quick, easy, and healthy.

Excellent dish! I served this over rice instead of in flour shells as I had leftover rice in the refrigerator. This is very easy and I will definitely make this again. Thanks for posting this Deb! Made for Fall 2009 PAC.

Except for omitting the green pepper & cutting the recipe in half, all the ingredients were used & directions followed, giving very nice tasting fajitas, although I might cut back on the chili powder another time! These are well worth making again! Thanks for the recipe! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's PAC]
