Chicken fajita on-a-budget!
-1 large, or 2 medium chicken breasts
-1 sm can of Campbell's "chicken fiesta" flavour mixture (it's not soup but a
thicker tomato-based paste-type thing you add to baked chicken to make meals)
-1 large green pepper
-2-3 cloves garlic
-1 sm or 1/2 medium-sized onion
-1-2 hot chilli peppers (depending on your tolerance level; can omit this)
--> Saute onion, hot pepper and garlic in a splash of olive oil over medium heat
until translucent (but not burnt!)
--> Add chicken (sliced) and cook over med heat until almost done
[Feel free to add lemon zest/italiano/oregano/spices to your liking here]
--> Add entire contents of fiesta can and turn heat to ~3-4; mix and let sit
--> After 7 minutes, check chicken to ensure cooking is complete and add slices
of green pepper (feeling a little ambitious/rich? add red/yellow pepper too)
--> Adding green peppers last will warm it but ensure it's still got it's spunk
and crunch!
--> Let sit on low, covered while you prep (~5 mins)
Pre-eats prep: wash and break pieces of lettuce or wash spinach, grate so cheese
(marble does just great) and get the sour cream and salsa ready! Warm your
tortillas in a microwave for 6 seconds or toss in oven for 2 minutes (make sure
it doesn't get crunchy or it's a hot mess to eat; also, buy large tortillas to
hold in all the goodness).
EATZ: place chicken mixture in centre of tortilla, add lettuce to one side,
cheese to the other side of it. Place a few dollops of salsa/sour cream down
the centre and fold/NOM!
