Being able to provide a nutritious and delicious meal to my family on busy weeknights can sometimes be challenging at best, but over the years I have discovered some products and tricks that have made it much easier. By doing some prep work over the weekend, enlisting the help of the kids, and using products like Tyson Grilled & Ready® chicken, I am able to make a delicious meal in no time flat. Quick Fix Fajitas is a fabulous one pot meal, and one of my family’s favorites.
Ingredients:
1 bag Tyson Grilled & Ready® Chicken Fajita Strips
1 envelope Fajita Seasoning Mix
1/4 cup water
1 package flour tortillas
1 onion, sliced
1 green pepper, sliced
1 yellow pepper, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil, separated
I love that the Tyson Grilled & Ready® chicken is fully cooked, all white meat, 98% fat free, and has no preservatives. The fully cooked meat really helps me to make dinner in a snap. To speed things up even more, prep your onion and peppers in advance and store in the fridge until ready to use. Many grocery stores have onion and pepper medleys that are already sliced and ready to use, if you don’t mind spending a bit more.
Directions:
In a large saucepan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the frozen chicken strips. Allow to chicken to partially cook, stirring occasionally. Remove partially cooked chicken to a plate, and set aside. To the same pan, add an additional tablespoon of olive oil, along with the peppers and onion. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes, then add the chicken back to the pan. Stir in the fajita seasoning packet, water, and continue to cook until peppers and onion are tender, and chicken is heated through.
Serve on flour tortillas, along with your favorite condiments like sour cream and salsa. This recipe is more than enough to feed five people – including hungry teenagers.

I honestly love Tyson chicken products. It makes dinner less time consuming and doesn’t take away from flavor!! I can spend the extra time I have with the ones I love!!
My family loves fajitas, we will defiantly have to try this recipe, thanks
I love that chart from TYSON! Thanks for sharing!
Can’t wait to try these..omg they look so good and easy is the best part. Thanks
I like this easy and fast Fajitas recipe. I never thought of using this type of chicken, but it cooks quick and the meal is fast. I am going to make these soon! I wish I could get some girls like yours to cook for me!
Cutting up veggies the night before makes dinner quicker. Thanks for the recipe.
I love using the Tyson chicken and beef strips. They are so quick, easy, and delicious.
I have never used this product might just have to try it. Perfect for days that are busy. I accidently put the wrong link in contest -giveaway for comments. Sorry, hope it still counts. Also my FB &blog address are different. Thanks 😉
No worries about the contest, we’ve got you down!
How easy! And a great option for busy nights when there is school, work and after school/work activities! Shoot, I’m sure my 7 year old could even take a crack at these bad boys! Thanks for sharing – I didn’t realize Tyson had the fajita mix like this. I will have to check it out the next time I’m at the store!
I’ve used the beef strips before for fajitas. They are so tasty, and make for a super easy clean up.
