Chicken Fajita with Corn Tortilla

This a really flavorful meal that not only you will love but all your family will love as well. You will also find that this is a very easy meal to make. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Prep Time: 15 min.
Cook Time: 15 min.
Servings: 4

Ingredients :

2 green bell peppers
1 red bell pepper
2 medium onions
2 large chicken breasts (Great Value boneless, skinless chicken breasts are gluten free)
1/4 tea. garlic salt
1/4 tea. onion salt
1/2 tea. seasoning salt
1/2 tea. salt
1/2 tea. pepper
1 cup of water
8 tea. olive oil
8 gluten free corn tortillas (Walmarts Great Value brand corn tortillas are labeled as gluten free)
gluten free sour cream (Walmarts Great Value brand sour cream is labeled as gluten free)

1. Cut bell peppers into slices.

2. Cut onions into slices.

3. Cut chicken breasts into slices.

4. Throw bell peppers, onions, and chicken into a pan. Add 1 cup of water. Combine all seasonings and sprinkle over all the bell peppers, onions and chicken. (I like to use my electric skillet for this because it has lots of room and it has a lid to cover the pan. If you do not have an electric skillet with a lid you will need a pan with a lid. This helps the bell peppers and onions get steamed all the way through.)

5. Stir all ingredients together. If using an electric skillet cover and cook on 375 for 10-15 min. checking and occasionally stirring. If using a pan on your stove cover and cook on medium for 10-15 min. checking and occasionally stirring. You will now when it is done when the bell peppers and onions become soft.

6. While that is cooking I like to get my tortillas warmed up in a pan. I add 1 tea. of olive oil for each tortilla and cook the tortilla on low and turn after 20-30 seconds on each side.

7. After your tortillas are done you spoon in chicken fajita filling. You can then put on some sour cream. Feel free to add anything else that you like such as gluten free cheese or salsa. We ate it with only sour cream last night and it was delicious. I hope you enjoy.

Cheese and Chive Potatoes

These are super easy and very yummy potatoes. They make a great side dish. This is what we are eating for dinner tonight along with some roasted chicken and broccoli. It also can make a great main dish...just add some sliced up kielbasa for a more filling main dish.

Prep Time: 10 Min.
Cook Time: 1 hr. in oven 4 hr. in crock pot
Servings: 4

Ingredients:

5 Large Potatoes
2 cups Whole Milk
3 cups Shredded Gluten Free Mild Cheese (I used Kraft natural shredded mild cheese... always check label)
3 Green Onions (Chives)
1/4 tea. Garlic Salt
1/4 tea. Onion Salt
1 tea. Salt
1/4 tea. Pepper (optional)

1. Slice potatoes thin.
2. Chop green onions.
3. Three cups shredded cheese (gluten free).

4. Combine garlic salt, onion salt, salt and pepper.

5. I like to use my crock pot. Spray bottom of crock pot or pan with cooking spray, oil or butter. Cover bottom of pan with first layer of potatoes. Sprinkle half of seasoning over potatoes then cover with 1 cup of shredded cheese and then sprinkle on half of chopped chives. Add second layer of potatoes then add remaining seasoning, cheese and chives. Last pour 2 cups of milk in. Make sure to carefully pour it in on the side of pan so not to wash away cheese.

If cooking in a crock pot. You will need to cook potatoes on high for 4 hr. or until soft when pocked with a fork. If cooking in oven pan your pan will need to be covered with a lid or tin foil. Cook at 350 degrees for 1 hr or until soft when pocked with a fork.

Hi my name is Shara Cherry. I feel that there is a real need for easy and fast gluten free recipes so that is why I am starting this blog. For years I had dreaded cooking gluten free meals for my family...feeling that is just wasn't quite up to par to what everyone else gets to eat. Finally I have learned some tricks and now I really love to cook my gluten free recipes and I wanted to share my new love of cooking and what I have learned with everyone else. Please have patients while I get things set up. Thanks and I hope you enjoy.
