FIVE-PEPPER FAJITAS | |
Low in fat in the event you're counting fat-grams... You can buy prepared salsa for these fajitas in the Mexican section of your supermarket, or you can make your own..Fajitas ("little bundles" of various ingredients) can be messy if you eat them with your hands, so you may want to use a knife and fork. 4 chicken breasts, skinned, boned Juice of 1 lime 2 cloves garlic, crushed 3 scallions, chopped Fresh ground black pepper to taste 1/2 tsp. cumin 1 med. red bell pepper 1 med. yellow bell pepper 1 med. green bell pepper 8 whole wheat tortillas 1 tbsp. vegetable oil 2 to 3 tsp. jalapeno peppers, chopped fine (use gloves) Salt to taste Fresh cilantro, chopped (to taste) 1 med. tomato, diced Salsa to taste 1. Slice the chicken into chunks about 1/2 inch square. Place them in a large bowl. Squeeze the lime juice over chicken. Add the garlic, scallions, black pepper and cumin and toss to mix. 2. Slice the bell peppers into strips and set aside. 3. Wrap the tortillas in a thin, clean dishcloth, place them on an ovenproof plate and put the plate in the oven. Warm the tortillas at the lowest setting on your oven while preparing the fajita mixture. 4. Heat the oil and water in a large saucepan (or wok) over medium heat and add the chicken, bell peppers and jalapeno peppers. Add the greater amount of jalapeno peppers, if you like your food very spicy. Saute, stirring frequently, until the chicken and vegetables are cooked through, about 25 minutes. Add salt to taste. 5. Spread a spoonful of the fajita mixture in a thick line in the middle of each tortilla. Top with cilantro, tomato and salsa to taste. Roll up the tortillas and serve. Onions add flavor to the above dish. |
