Why I Like it So Much

Grilled Chicken FajitasLet’s face it, all of the recipes you find for grilled chicken fajitas on other websites dedicated solely to food preparation will probably taste a bit better than this one; but at what cost?  Do a quick search online and you will see that the average cooking time for these recipes is about 30 minutes!  Now I don’t know about you, but with my crazy lifestyle of going to work, working out, taking care of 3 kids, and trying to keep my marriage the way it should be, I barely have 5 minutes to spare for lunch … let alone 30.  Not only is the recipe above healthy and delicious, but it also allows me to fuel my body with minimal preparation time!  This way I can spend much more time on things that matter most.  In the end, I’ll be a better father, a better husband, and I’ll look amazing next time I’m standing next to Emeril Lagasse on the beach!
