Chicken Fajitas are not something that we ate in Russia. Especially, not these Chile Lime Chicken Fajitas. At least not when I was growing up. And the question I keep asking my self: why? We’ve got all the ingredients; it’s just the matter of putting them together. Oh well. I eat them now 😉 These are so simple, and so good! Forget that packet seasoning, you’ll never use that again after trying these chicken fajitas! Real ingredients = real food!
