This recipe has been on Facebook and a coworker friend Sheila told me how good it was. I love Mexican and this is a healthy version so I knew I had to try it. I made a few changes to the original recipe so here is my version.
Oven Baked Fajitas
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken tenders, cut into chunks
4 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried cilantro
seasoned salt (I use Penzey's 4S, but Lawry's would work too)
2 cans Rotel
2 medium onions, sliced
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
Directions:
Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the chicken strips into a 13x9 baking dish (sprayed with Pam cooking spray). Sprinkle the chicken liberally with the seasoned salt.
In a small bowl combine the oil and spices. Drizzle over the chicken and stir to coat. Next add the Rotel, peppers, onion, and garlic. Stir to combine.
Bake uncovered 25-35 minutes until the chicken is done and the veggies are tender.
I served with some low calorie tortillas, sour cream, and shredded cheese. Just watch the amount to keep your calories down.
