We really like chicken fajitas and I usually grill them, but
this time I let the chicken and veggies soak up a good marinade, and then let
it all roast in the oven.
They turned out great, the flavors were so delicious, and I
let the oven do most of the work.
This is a simple healthy meal that hit the spot and made us
happy. It doesn’t get much better
than this, and it’s easy peasy!
