SCHOVAERS FAMOUS FAJITAS

This recipe has been in S's family for a long time!! It is a great family tradition. I used to make these every Sunday when we were first married but then we got sick of them. Now it's more of a monthly thing. Enjoy!!

1 fajita seasoning packet (we prefer Taco Bell brand...sad eh??)

1 green pepper, chopped

1 red pepper, chopped
1/2 of an onion, chopped

4 thawed chicken breasts, sliced

Put chicken in large skillet with 1 tablespoon oil. Cook until almost done. Add peppers and onions and saute for about minute. Add fajita packet and any oil/water according to package directions. Cook until chicken is cooked through and veggies are al dente.

Serve on warmed tortillas with cheese, olives, salsa, guac, sour cream, black beans, etc. Roll up and eat!! Yummmmmmmmmmm. =)

VARIATIONS: You can also precook the chicken on the grill then slice and cook with peppers and onions. You can also use steak...if you're daring!!
