Recipe Tips and Variations

Add other vegetables such as zucchini, mushrooms, or jalapenos.

Sometimes, I just eat it with tortilla chips and skip the wrap altogether. It’s entirely up to you!

Swap out the taco seasoning for fajita seasoning.

Swap out the chicken for shrimp or steak.

Feel free to add whatever toppings you like. We usually add lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, salsa and sour cream to top our fajitas.

Line your pan with foil and it will make clean up a lot easier.

Recipe FAQ’s

Both of these seasonings have similar ingredients and can be substituted if desired. They both have great flavor and will add the perfect seasonings to a dish.

Chicken or Steak is the best for making fajitas. A skirt steak is more of the traditional beef for fajitas, but flank steak and chicken will also work nicely.

Toppings for a Fajita

The choice is really up to you and what you like. Traditionally, people like to top fajitas with cheese, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. 

Other toppings might include: guacamole, avocados, shredded carrots and cabbage, diced jalapenos.

Serve with flour tortillas and salsa. Top with cheese and your favorite toppings.
Serve refried beans and rice as a side dish.

Side Dishes to Serve with Chicken Fajitas

Try Crock Pot Corn as a side to this dish.

Honey Butter Skillet Corn is also another great side dish.

Corn Salad with Jalapenos is the perfect side dish for any night of the week, holiday, or summertime cookout. This recipe comes together super fast and will be chilling in your refrigerator in no time.

Cheesy Stuffed Jalapenos is a super easy recipe and comes together fast for a treat or snack any time of the week.

Guacamole is made with simple ingredients and comes together in less than 5 minutes. Made with avocados, onion, jalapenos, and seasoning. Total yum in a bowl and fabulous for dipping.

I love Coleslaw with just about any meal. This creamy coleslaw would be a great side dish.
