Method
Step 1
For the fajita seasoning... Mix all the spices, salt n pepper to make the fajita seasoning. You can get a readymade one from the store too but they have unwanted fillers n sugar which we don't need... soooo... let's make ours at home we need seven spices... mentioned in the ingredients...
Step 2
Clean n wash the chicken breasts. Cut them into thin strips. Generously sprinkle the fajita season over the chicken strips and rub with your hand.
Step 3
Take about gms of ghee or any other fat in a pan and saute the chicken strips. Cook till tender. Remove and keep aside.
Step 4
In the same pan add the capsicum and onion cut into strips. saute on medium or high heat till tender but not mushy... tastes better slightly crunchy.
Step 5
Add the cream cheese n mix well....
Step 6
To serve u can either serve the cream cheese and veges with the chicken strips separately or just mix everything up together n njoy.
Step 7
The cream cheese can be avoided if you wanna serve it with tortilla... Here u can add guacamole or avocado, salsa n a dollop of sour cream too. will post this recipe too soon 😅
Step 8
Another variations is chicken fajita salad where again u can avoid the cream cheese. Add leafy greens, beans, corn and avocado to the sauteed chicken n veges to make a delicious salad🥗
