EASY CHICKEN FAJITA MARINADE
This is a simple fajita marinade that has been bounced around in my family for at least 15 years. It's simple, tasty, easily altered for a twist on the taste, and can be easily prepared in under 15 minutes. Serve with other fajita elements and enjoy! Some ideas: sauteed green bell pepper with white or yellow onions, jalapeno slaw, homemade salsa (tomato or mango), etc.

BOBBY FLAY'S CHICKEN FAJITAS
These fajitas are healthy, fresh, and delicious! I added a little bit of lime juice to the avocado to prevent browning. I used my magic bullet to make the marinade and other two sauces. These were amazing. I kept it low fat and low calorie by sticking with the recipe, however my boyfriend added cheese and taco sauce because he thinks diet food is junk.
