Smokehouse Maple Fajitas


With all this wonderful weather, we're breaking in the grill!


These fajitas were delightful -- especially with the smokehouse maple seasoning.  Oh. My.


Smokehouse Maple Fajitas

Ingredients
4 chicken breasts
~3 tsp. Smokehouse Maple Seasoning (from McCormick)
1 sweet vadallia onion, separated
3 colored bell peppers
1 green bell pepper
1 tsp. olive oil
4-6 whole wheat tortillas
Shredded cheddar cheese, if desired

Directions

Season the uncooked {but thawed} chicken breasts with smokehouse maple.  Then, place the chicken breasts on the grill.


Grill on each side for ~10 minutes.  Check the internal temperature of the chicken breast, and continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 180 degrees.

Meanwhile, slice up the onion and bell peppers into long strips.  Toss with olive oil.


Place the veggies in a grill basket.  Place on the grill and roast the veggies for 10-15 minutes, tossing the veggies every 4-5 minutes.


{Don't mind the zucchini slices in here... we often serve grilled zucchini as a side.}

When the chicken and veggies are done, remove them from the grill and cover to keep warm.


Slice the chicken breast and lay the chicken slices in the center of a whole wheat tortilla.


Top with peppers and onions.


If desired, add the cheddar cheese.  Place the tortillas then into the grill basket and set on the grill (that is now cooling down).  Close the lid to melt the cheese.


Enjoy!

Fajitas have quickly become a fave for us to grill too. My husband is even making us all try chili peppers ( which I've never eaten) in it and it's amazing! We do ours with chicken and steak and it's incredible! Thanks for posting!

We had fajitas, too this week. There is nothing like grilled meat with veggies in a tortilla. I haven't seen that smokehouse maple seasoning. I will have to keep an eye out for it.
