These could very well be the easiest
~ and maybe the tastiest fajitas ~
you'll ever make!
They are so good and super simple to make, thanks to Perdue Short Cuts, Grilled Fajita-style Chicken!
The chicken is already cooked and seasoned ~ it takes the chicken to a new level for a quick meal you can make in a snap.
A simple fajita made with the tender chicken, colorful red peppers, slivered onions, spices, sautéed in beautiful bright red chili oil.
Chili oil is made by infusing ripe red chilies in soybean oil, yielding a red-hot fragrant seasoning. The red oil adds a delightful taste and fragrance, it adds a distinct flavor to any dish, and can be used in cooking or as an ingredient in dipping sauces.
These fajitas are a great way to get your Tex-Mex fix!
