    Chicken Fajita Make Ahead Kits


    Season Mix

    3 tablespoons cornstarch
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    1 tablespoon salt
    1 tablespoon paprika
    1 tablespoon sugar
    2 1/2 teaspoons chicken bouillon powder
    1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    olive oil
    12 boneless chicken breasts
    2 green bell peppers
    2 red bell peppers
    3 yellow onions (or your favorite onion)
    3 cups cheddar cheese
    18 fajita-size flour tortillas
    1 1/2 cups salsa

    In a med. bowl mix the seasoning ingredients together. Set aside for
    later.
    Cut peppers and onions in thin strips. In large skillet saute with a
    little olive oil for 5 minutes or until tender. (Do not over cook.)
    When cool divide into 3 portions and place each portion in a quart
    size freezer bag making sure to squeeze excess air out of bag.
    Refrigerate until ready to place in kit.
    Cut chicken into 1/4" strips. In large skillet pour a little olive
    oil in and begin cooking chicken strips. ( May need to do in 2
    separate batches.) When chicken is no longer pink sprinkle with
    seasoning mix and cook 2 minutes longer. Cool chicken and divide into
    3 portions. Place each portion in a quart freezer bag. Squeeze excess
    air out and refrigerate until ready to place in kit.
    Make 3 cheese bags by placing one cup into 3 sandwich size bags.
    Squeeze excess air out.
    Make 3 salsa bags by placing 1/2 cup of salsa in 3 snack size bags.
    Squeeze air out.
    Make 3 tortilla packs by wrapping 6 tortillas in saran wrap and then
    place in a gallon freezer bag. Squeeze air out.
    To assemble kit:
    Slide tortilla bag into another gallon freezer bag. Place chicken,
    veggies, cheese and salsa neatly into the same gallon bag. Squeeze
    out air and seal. Include kit directions:
    In skillet heat chicken in oil until defrosted and warm. Add veggies
    and cook for 5 minutes or until hot. Defrost tortillas if needed in
    microwave for 30 seconds. Spoon cheese, salsa, meat and veggies on
    tortilla. Serve with sour cream and enjoy!
