My boyfriend would be head over heels with this recipe. One pan means less clean up and more time together! 🙂
Do you just serve the salsa listed in the recipe on the side?
Just wondering the same thing about the salsa. Do you add before cooking or as a topping?
Wondering the same thing regarding the salsa – making tonight – please let me know asap!
Is the salsa served as a topping or added into the dish before baking? Thanks.
Wondering about the salsa also. Looks delicious.
I’m so sorry about that! It is fixed!

I may be overlooking it, but is the second half of the taco seasoning packet ever used? I only notice where it says to sprinkle half over the chicken. Excited to try this, as my husband has been asking for fajitas lately!
How long do you bake it if you are using chicken tenders?
Just check it around 30 minutes and see if your chicken is cooked through or if it needs a little longer. Tenders won’t take quite as long as chicken breasts.
what brand of salsa did you use?
We use all kinds and brands. Some of our favorites are Kroger Brand, Herdez, and Pace. They all taste great!
Have made this at least 5-6 times now and my family loves it! We all love how delicious it is and I love how easy it is to prepare and the quick clean-up!!
I made this for dinner for my family of 6. I had no yellow peppers so I just did the red AND the Salsa was amazing. I got the peppers and onions presliced. At first I had some frowns of “what is that?!” Then when they finally ate it there was no leftovers! Will be making this again. I Love your swift dinner ideas. Never seen ANYONE else do what you gals do. Thank you.
Carly, so glad to hear that the family loved the Fajitas! And thanks so much for your support!
