I have a feeling Annie's Eats will become another favorite place to find recipes. These fajitas were delicious! I have this problem where I don't like to measure ingredients, but I figured in a marinade that wouldn't matter too much. It all goes back to my dislike of doing dishes (just ask my dad). My rule at home was that if I cooked, I didn't have to do dishes. That doesn't work anymore. One thing I would change for next time is to use 1 red and 1 yellow pepper instead of 2 red. Also, some sauteed mushrooms might be a good addition. When I was at the store I also picked up an avocado and sliced some on my fajita. It added a good flavor and is probably better for you than adding sour cream (although I did add some of that too, along with cheese). For the grilling I used what I call my "girl" grill. It's a griddler/grill/panini press all in one. Plus it means I don't have to go outside in the snow to get some grilled food. As soon as the chicken, peppers, and onion hit the grill the sizzle started and the smell was amazing. Definitely watch the peppers and onion...you still want to keep the crunchiness and not overdo them. This is a recipe I will use again and again. I'd go so far as to say it's my new favorite fajita recipe.
Leftovers: I think they will be really good as leftovers. I also bought some provolone cheese that I figure I can melt in a tortilla and add to the chicken and veggies. And there you have it, your very own wrap for lunch!
