Fajita Chicken LOW CARB

The easiest meal prep with the tastiest flavor! Isn't it the best feeling when you know you have a delicious lunch waiting for you while you're at work or you have a quick meal you can heat up on the go or while you're home? I am always looking forward to my next meal so when I know I have some fajita chicken in the fridge, I'm a happy girl! This is not authentic and it's definitely just following the directions on the seasoning packet BUT I have a few ways to make this perfect and I hope you add it to your meal prep really soon.

Fajita Chicken- Makes 4 servings
1 lb chicken breast cut into thin, small pieces
1 cup of bell pepper sliced thin
1 cup of white onion cut into thin half moons or diced
1 packet of Fajita Seasoning or 1/3 cup of homemade Fajita Seasoning
1/3 cup water
2 Tbsp olive oil

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Once the oil is very hot add in the chicken. Spread to a single layer.
Allow the chicken to cook for 3 minutes.
Flip chicken pieces over to cook an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside making sure to reserve the oil in the pan.
There should be 1 tbsp of oil still in the pan, add more if needed.
Over medium high heat add in the onions and the peppers.
Cook them for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are soft and well browned.
Add the chicken back in and turn down the heat to medium.
Sprinkle the fajita seasoning over the chicken and the veggies. Give everything a good mix.
Add in the water and stir well.

Allow to bubble and thicken for 1-2 minutes.
Then you are ready to serve! Enjoy!
