Happy taco Tuesday or should I say fajita Tuesday? ??♀️ I’m really missing just eating out so I’m getting creative with our meals. This one is a winner and uses ingredients most of you might have in your fridge and pantry already.

Instructions
Slice half of a red onion and a whole bell pepper, along with some green onions and jalapeños.
Toss all the veggies in a bowl, add 2 tsps of oil and some salt and pepper.
Sear the chicken in a grill pan or even a nonstick pan with all your veggies until the chicken is cooked and the veggies have a char.
You can serve it with some rotis or in a tortilla.
My daughter Hannah likes to eat this dish with some rice and yogurt. Hope you all love it!
Notes
To really get the best flavor, I marinate the chicken overnight. When pressed for time which is the norm these days, I marinate just a few hours before I have to cook it. A lot of times, I keep a packet marinated in my freezer for a super quick dinner.
