These Chipotle Chicken Fajitas are so simple to make! I love recipes that enable you to get a meal on the table quickly and this is definitely one of them.
What takes this recipe over the top is serving it with the new Minute® Ready to Serve Cilantro & Lime Jasmine Rice. The cilantro and lime pair perfectly with the Chipotle Chicken Fajitas.

Chipotle Chicken Fajitas Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 7.5 ounce can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 green peppers
- 1/2 a red onion
- 1 pound of chicken thighs
Process:
Mix together the peppers in adobo sauce, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Cut the chicken into strips. Add the chicken strips to the mixture and allow it to marinade while you chop up your veggies.
Chop the peppers and onion up into pieces similar in size to your chicken.
Use a pair of tongs to pull the chipotle peppers out of the sauce/chicken mixture. Then toss the green peppers, onion, and chicken together then spread them out onto a nonstick baking pan that has an edge.
Bake the chicken and veggies at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
I love to serve the Chipotle Chicken Fajitas with Minute® Ready to Serve Cilantro & Lime Jasmine Rice.
I picked some up on a trip to Walmart last week where you can also find the other new varieties – Minute® Ready to Serve Southwest Pinto Beans with White Rice and Vegetables and Minute® Ready to Serve Garlic & Olive Oil Jasmine Rice.
Minute® Ready to Serve rice is great for busy, on the go lifestyles. You can heat it in the microwave in 90 seconds and eat it right out of the cup, so no clean up which I think is perfect for a quick lunch. Minute® Ready to Serve rice is good to go anytime, anywhere.
It’s also an easy add-on to dinner. I love easy solutions like this that enable me to focus on one part of the dish and not have to be working on too many things at once.
Minute® Ready to Serve rice is gluten free and has no preservatives. All the varieties are vegan. You can add in vegetables, proteins and make something you really love.
I chose the Minute® Ready to Serve Cilantro & Lime Jasmine Rice because I feel like its flavors pair well with the Chipotle Chicken Fajitas. The jasmine rice is wonderfully aromatic and delicious.
