Chicken Fajitas

What's the difference between a viola and an onion?
No one cries when you cut up a viola.


Yet another silly word, that was dancing about on my tongue last night: Fajitas.  FAH-he-taaaaaaa, Fajita, anyway you say it, this is one easy tasty meal.  My husband's mother made some extra tortillas (from scratch!...reminder, take pictures next time and add to post....), and so we made some fillings.

After BBQ'ing the other day, I wanted to try out a dry rub on the boneless, skinless organic chicken I picked up earlier this week from Publix.  As you can tell from the picture above, the chicken had a great crust to it.  Very juicy and flavorful.  I will be experimenting more with this rubbing down of meat and poultry.....hmmm....dry rubbed shrimp?  The possibilities are endless.....

Here's what you need (for two):
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon of Kosher or coarse salt
1 teaspoon of pepper
1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1-2 teaspoons of olive oil or bacon fat
1 yellow onion
2 green peppers
1 clove of garlic
1 avocado
1 lime, juiced
salt and pepper to taste
1 vine tomato
1 cup of finely shredded cheese, either colby of 4 cheese mexican blend
2-3 tortillas per person
