Kara our family just had this for dinner the other day. It is a wonderful chicken dish. My kids said it tasted like they were eating chicken enchiladas. We didn’t have fajita seasoning on hand so I mixed taco seasoning and some Don Sazon Meat Seasoning (from the Mexican market- we sprinkle it on carne asada). I ended up sprinkling about 1 1/2 Tbsp. total all over the chicken. This serves 4.
