Quick Chicken Fajita Burritos Recipes

EASY CHICKEN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and wrap 6 medium tortillas in foil.
• Mix 1 heaped tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp ground coriander, a pinch of ground cumin, 2 crushed garlic cloves, 4 tbsp olive oil, the juice of 1 lime and 4-5 drops Tabasco together in a bowl with a big pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Stir 2 finely sliced chicken breasts, 1 finely sliced red onion, 1 sliced red pepper and 1 finely sliced red chilli, if using, into the marinade.
• Heat a griddle pan until smoking hot and add the chicken and marinade to the pan.
• Keep everything moving over a high heat for about 5 mins using tongs until you get a nice charred effect. If your griddle pan is small you may need to do this in two batches.
• To check the chicken is cooked, find the thickest part and tear in half - if any part is still raw cook until done.
• Put the tortillas in the oven to heat up and serve with the cooked chicken, a bag of mixed salad and one 230g tub of fresh salsa.

QUICK AND EASY BAKED CHICKEN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the bottom of a 10x14 glass dish. Add chicken strips.
• Combine remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic granules, chili powder, oregano, and cumin in a small bowl. Rub mixture over the chicken. Add tomatoes, onion, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and green chiles. Mix thoroughly. Sprinkle with seasoned salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

QUICK CHICKEN FAJITA BURRITOS

Steps:

• Cook chicken in a large skillet with oil. Remove cooked chicken; cover and keep warm.
• Add sliced veggies to pan and cook over high heat 10 minutes or until tender and blackened.
• Stir in 3 tablespoons of fajita seasoning (recipe below), 1/4 cup water, and lime juice.
• Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, heat beans until hot and shred the cheese. Briefly warm the tortillas.
• Spoon beans, meat and veggies into tortillas and top with cheese, spinach and sour cream, or have people assemble themselves.
• Combine last 10 ingredients in a lidded container - I used an old spice jar - and use 3 tablespoons to equal 1 packet of fajita or taco seasoning.
