Chicken Fajitas

They may not have the snap and sizzle of restaurant fajitas, but these ones are just as tasty.

Ingredients:
1 package chicken tenders (unprocessed, just boneless skinless chicken breast meat cut in large strips)
1 large green or red pepper, seeds removed and cut into strips
1 medium yellow onion, cut into strips
cilantro (a handful of fresh chopped or 4 cubes frozen fresh cilantro--available at Trader Joe's!)
fajita spices (I favor Penzys Southwest Seasoning, but any combination of salt, pepper, garlic, cilantro, paprika, cumin, etc will do)
large flour tortillas (I am so biased towards flour ones, and the smaller ones just won't hold it all)
1 can vegetarian, fat-free refried beans
1 avocado, diced
salsa
shredded cheese (if you're me, that means cheddar!)

Directions:

1.  Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat add add a tablespoon or two of olive oil.
2.  Add the onions and peppers to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until they begin to char.
3.  Add the chicken tenders, cilantro, and spices to the skillet, cover, and let cook until the chicken is browned, around 3 to 5 minutes. 
4.  Turn the heat down to medium, stir, and re-cover.  Cook until the chicken is cooked through, stirring as needed to keep the food from burning.
5.  While the chicken is cooking, scoop the refried beans into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until piping hot.
6.  Put a tortilla on each plate, topped with some shredded cheese.  Microwave just long enough to warm the tortillas.
7.  Assemble fajitas by topping each cheesy tortilla with some of the chicken and veggies, followed by however much you want of the refried beans, salsa, and avocado.

Yum!
