Step-by-Step Instructions
To get started, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté them until they start to soften—about 5 minutes. The smell of those veggies cooking fills the kitchen with such a comforting aroma! Once they’re ready, stir in the cooked chicken, diced tomatoes, fajita seasoning, and cooked rice. Mix everything until it’s well combined and warmed through. The colorful medley looks stunning in the pan! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
