Chili Lime Chicken Fajitas

April 30, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Chili Lime Chicken Fajitas start with marinated chicken breasts, peppers and onions that are stuffed into a flour tortilla and end with fresh toppings.

The fajitas get there flavor from the marinade I use on the chicken breasts, Chicken Fajita Marinade Mix. You marinade the chicken breasts for 3 hours or more, then they are grilled to sear in the flavor and juices.

Along with grilling the chicken, you grill peppers and onions on high heat. I think this is a very important step, having a high enough temperature to cook the vegetables quickly so they still are a little firm when you add them to your fajita.

For toppings, I use avocado, limes and cheese. Feel free to add in guacamole, sour cream or fresh tomatoes. Add your favorite toppings, the possibilities are endless.

I hope you have enjoyed my week of Mexican recipes to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, which is celebrated on Monday, May 5th.  Mexican food ranks high on my list of favorites, I hope you enjoy the recipes as much as I do.

Enjoy!

Hoisin Noodles with Vegetables

March 12, 2014 by Kay 3 Comments

Hoisin Noodles with Vegetables is a meat free entree but it’s packed full of deliciousness! Hoisin is an Asian BBQ sauce and it’s used in the sauce for this dish along with other fresh ingredients including lime juice, ginger and garlic.

The vegetables I used in Hoisin Noodles with Vegetables are broccoli, carrots, cabbage and green onions, they work well with the noodles and peanuts in this recipe. I like the addition of the peanuts, add a nice crunch to this dish.

I could eat dishes like this almost every night of the week. Stir Fry’s rank high on my list of my favorite meals. You could easily add chicken, pork or shrimp to this recipe.

Let the salsa sit for a bit so the flavors can marry. Serve with tortilla chips or use it as a topping for a salad, either way, it’s delicious.
