Healthy Chicken Fajitas and Homemade Salsa

I found this recipe and it sounded really good so I had to give it a try.  Turns out, it was!  Even Roy liked it which never happens with recipes deemed healthy!


CHICKEN FAJITAS
Slightly adapted from here
Ingredients
  • Chicken Breast sliced thin
  • 1 medium Green or Red Pepper or both!
  • 1/2 cup Onion (your favorite type)
  • 2 or 3 leaves Lettuce
  • 1/4 cup Homemade Salsa (see below)
  • 1 whole Juice of a Lime
Directions
Put raw chicken, peppers and onions into a foil pack, add the juice of a lime along with your favorite spicy seasoning and throw on the low heat setting of the grill for 30-45 minutes. Flip every ten minutes until its cooked through. Put into lettuce leaves with your salsa and enjoy!


Note: This is for one foil pack so just multiply the above recipe out depending on how many people you are cooking for.
