Stir-Fried Chicken Fajitas
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + marinating Cook: 10 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
I developed this recipe one evening when I was hungry for fajitas but didn't want to light the charcoal grill! That makes the preparation a little different from traditional chicken fajitas...but our family likes these better.
