Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced in strips
- 1 package fajita seasoning, or homemade fajita seasoning
- 3 bell peppers, green, yellow, and red
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 2 cups rice cooked
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and chicken. Sprinkle half of the fajita seasoning on the chicken and cook until no longer pink. Set chicken aside on a plate.
- Add the bell peppers, and onion. Sprinkle remaining fajita seasoning on top. Sauté until they are tender. Add chicken back to the skillet and stir until warmed through.
- To assemble, place 1/2 cup cooked rice into four sealable containers. I like to use leftover rice or prepackaged cooked rice for convenience.
- Place 1 cup of cooked chicken fajitas into the containers.
- Seal the containers and store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. Warm in the microwave and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve with sliced avocado if you desire!
