Prepare Ingredients: Begin by gathering all the necessary ingredients for the recipe.
-
Cook Chicken: In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add half of the oil. Place the boneless chicken breasts in the skillet and cook until they are browned and the juices evaporate, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once cooked, set the chicken aside for later use.
-
Prepare Vegetables: Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining oil to the skillet. Slice the green pepper and onion, then add them to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, maintaining their vibrant colors and flavors.
-
Combine Ingredients: Pour off any excess fat from the skillet. Add the chunky salsa and soup to the skillet, stirring to combine all the flavors. Allow the mixture to heat until it reaches a gentle boil.
-
Reintroduce Chicken: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, ensuring it is heated through and coated evenly with the flavorful salsa and soup mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
-
Assemble Fajitas: To assemble the fajitas, spoon approximately half a cup of the chicken mixture down the center of each 8-inch flour tortilla. Sprinkle shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the chicken mixture, adding an extra layer of creamy goodness.
-
Add Final Touches: Top the fajitas with additional salsa, if desired, to enhance the flavors and add a fresh, tangy kick. Fold the tortillas around the filling, creating neat bundles of deliciousness ready to be enjoyed.
