super easy chicken fajitas

I am so excited to be sharing with you this delicious and super easy to make chicken fajitas! I mean who doesn’t love a quick and easy meal that you can put together is less than 30 minutes? Chicken fajitas is the perfect school night meal because it goes so well with anything. You can serve them up with warm tortillas, creamy mashed potatoes or a simple Santa Fe rice. The possibilities are seriously endless.

School nights can be stressful and hectic, from helping your kids do their homework, taking them to their after school activities to getting everything ready for the next day. You need something easy to cook, something that your family is going to enjoy and something that will not take you long to make, chicken fajitas it is! 

Estoy muy emocionada de compartir contigo este delicioso y super fácil de hacer fajitas de pollo! Me refiero a quien no le gusta una comida rápida y fácil que se puede hacer en menos de 30 minutos? Las fajitas de pollo son el plato perfecto de la noche escolar porque va tan bien con cualquier cosa. Puedes servirlas con tortillas calientes, puré de patatas o un simple arroz Santa fe. Las posibilidades son seriamente interminables.

Las noches escolares pueden ser estresantes y agitadas, de ayudar a sus hijos a hacer su tarea, llevándolos a sus actividades después de la escuela, y asegurándose que todo esté listo para el día siguiente. Necesitas algo fácil de cocinar, algo que tu familia va a disfrutar y algo que no te llevará mucho tiempo, fajitas de pollo es!

super easy chicken fajitas

I used fresh green and red bell peppers, red onions, crushed fresh garlic and a little bit of cumin powder to add that smoky flavor. Of course I also seasoned my chicken fajitas with salt and pepper to taste. I added fresh cilantro leaves for a nice fresh and earthy flavor and lime juice. I’m telling you this chicken fajitas is packed with flavor and vegetables. Perfect weeknight meal if you ask me 🙂

Utilicé pimientos verdes y rojos frescos, cebollas rojas, ajo fresco machacado y un poco de polvo de comino para agregar ese sabor ahumado. Por supuesto también sazoné mis fajitas de pollo con sal y pimienta al gusto. He añadido hojas frescas de cilantro para un sabor fresco y jugo de un limón   Te estoy diciendo que las fajitas de pollo están llenas de sabor y verduras. Comida de noche perfecta si me preguntas 🙂

When I made this for my family the other day, it was a big hit, they loved it. My children ate everything on their plate (I served it with white rice) which always makes me very happy. My hubby was asking for seconds and I truly enjoyed eating these fajitas sitting down watching my favorite television show. It was a glorious moment.

Cuando hice esto para mi familia el otro día, fue un gran éxito, les encantó. Mis hijos comieron todo en su plato (lo serví con arroz blanco) que siempre me hace muy feliz. Mi esposo estaba pidiendo segundos y realmente yo lo disfruté sentada viendo mi programa favorito en la television. Fue un momento glorioso.
