I’ve recently came to the realization that I don’t share enough of my everyday recipes with my readers. Recipes I make in my kitchen day in and day out. Today, I’m sharing with you a tried and true favorite of ours; grilled chicken fajitas. I even did a demonstration on how to make this recipe at the Food & Wine Conference earlier this summer with STōK grills.

I’ve blogged about grilled chicken fajita kabobs before which are fun but not practical for a quick dinner! I’ve been making grilled chicken fajitas on the grill for the past year and since making them on the grill I can honestly say I can’t remember the last time I made chicken fajitas on the stove top. True story. You see my grilled chicken fajitas can be prepared 100% on the grill. Grill the chicken, place the onions and peppers in a veggie basket and wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil to place on the grill just before serving. I marinate the chicken in fajita seasoning and grapeseed oil in a plastic bag.

This can be prepared right before you go to grill or the night before for maximum flavor. Same goes with the onions and peppers. Slice them up and place them in a plastic bag with more fajita seasoning and grape seed oil. I cook them with grapeseed oil because grape seed oil has a high smoke point so my food is less likely to burn. I cook everything on low on the grill and with 15-20 minutes time frame dinner is served! Grilling chicken fajitas is that easy.

While the fajitas are cooking I whip up a batch of my fresh homemade salsa. Most of the time I’ll make a box of Spanish rice to go with our fajitas. That’s it… Dinner is served. I make this frequently when entertaining. I also make this at least twice a month  as it’s always a hit. And I always have leftovers for lunch. Over the next few weeks I’ll share with you how I repurpose my grilled chicken fajita leftovers and make them into something amazing!
