Dinner

Ok well if you’re craving some Mexican I can give you recipe to my homemade fajitas. You will need only a few things.

1 to 2 pounds of chicken breast.

Wilson approved tortillas

1 sweet white onion

1 yellow pepper

1 orange pepper. (I use these peppers because there sweeter then the traditional green and reds)

Olive oil

3 large limes

Bottle of at least Jose Cuervo tequila (you wont use the whole bottle and yes I feed this to Wilson, the alcohol cooks off before it is served)

Chicken seasoning (I like the McCormick’s kind)

Some zip lock bags

Prep

Slice the chicken into strips the size of high lighters (yes I am at my desk and looking at a high lighter there the same size so come work with me)

Sprinkle the chicken with the seasoning and slap the seasoning into the meat, and place in the bag.

Slice one lime and juice it into the bag (note put the lime in the microwave for 10 seconds to release the juice if you hands are not strong) leave the remaining limes in the bag as well

Then add a splash to tequila, only use a small amount. Push the air out of the bag and place in the fridge so the flavors and mix.

Slice the peppers and onions about the size of a sharpie (remember I am at my desk)

In separate bags add onions and olive oil in one, and in the other peppers and tequila in other.

Let the bags sit for about an hour or so.

If you’re feeling adventuress you can grill these, if I do you the grill I put a piece of foil down for my veggies

Pull the bags out of the fridge and place in a hot pan. All at once if the pan is a not stick remember to Pam it.

Please cook the chicken all the way through, if not you wont feel good later on.

Cook the veggies to your liking,

When your done cooking remove the lime rhine and place in a large dish. And squeeze one last lime over the food and your good to go.

You can add lettuce, salsa, beans, and even rice to this to jazz it up.

Some of the things you may not like, but this an open recipe you can play with.

Thank you some much for taking the time out to do this us.
