We don't have very many repeat dinners at our house. I figure there are just TOO many amazing recipes and dishes out there, to limit ourselves to a weekly dinner routine.
But these chicken fajitas. Forget it. These are a staple. We love these so much, I have been known to make a fresh batch of these a few days in a row. And the sour cream salsa, I've already told you that I'd eat this stuff all by itself. I put it on this. We are about licking our plates at the end of the meal. Yes, they're that good.
And yes, they're SUPER simple. If you don't try these, you're absolutely, positively crazy. cRaZy!

I could NOT believe how good this was for so little effort. I bought the already-cooked chicken breast from Costco and thought I'd give it a try. It was amazing! The flavor was so great I couldn't tell the chicken wasn't grilled fresh. And the lime flavor added a lot--I was a bit skeptical of the sour cream salsa, but it added just the right amount of flavor (and lime!) to the fajitas. Another great recipe!!
