The quickest meal you can make with amazingly tender chicken + crisp-tender veggies with the easiest clean-up!
It's dinner time and you are getting tired of the same old same grilled chicken so let's spice it up quickly with some one-pan chicken fajitas. However, you are starting to say I don't have enough time to do that... do you have 30 minutes to provide your family with a nutritious meal that is healthy? Did you know making this one dish is often quicker than getting pizza delivered to your door?
Did I mention CHEAPER! For the cost of that large family pack of chicken is $7.68 and for a pizza now you are talking about $9.99. Plus pizza may only be enough for 1 meal were this chicken pack was enough for 2 dinners for 4 people and 2 lunches for my husband and I. Amazing how much cheaper it is really, isn't it?
This is now one of our go-to recipes since I made it once when we were short on time and needed a quick dinner. I have to be honest I need a quick, easy, and nutritious meal for the family at least 3 times a week.
Another quick meal I often make is the cracked chicken. It's so creamy and good. It's also a huge plus that I can just set the crockpot and forget it. So if I can make other quick meals like this I will most definitely share them.
