It's like a cross between Monterrey Chicken and Chicken Fajitas. Oh so good! |
Allow cheese to melt over the top. Ooey Gooey Cheesy Chicken Goodness. |

Fajita Bacon Chicken
8 slices bacon, chopped
1 large Poblano pepper, sliced
1 white onion, sliced
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons dry fajita seasoning
Kosher salt to taste
1 large tomato, chopped
cilantro to taste
1 large package shredded Mexican-style cheese
flour tortillas, optional
sour cream, optional
salsa, optional
In a large skillet over medium-heat, cook bacon until almost crisp. Leave the bacon and the drippings in the skillet and add the pepper and onions. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, fajita seasoning and salt. Add to the pan. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink, approximately 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Top with chopped tomato and cilantro. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover skillet and allow cheese to melt, approximately 5 minutes. Serve with tortillas, sour cream and salsa if desired.
Prep Time: Approximately 10 minutes Cook Time: Approximately 30 minutes
I believe all those tasty treats are quite a chore because you have to finish each of the processes to get the best out of every ingredient. On the other hand, you can make some revisions and personalize the recipe by using a whole chicken. What’s important is that you ended up with a sumptuous treat for your family, right? Thanks for sharing that recipe, Candi!
