Heat Chicken & Finish Prep

  • Place chicken in a large microwave-safe bowl. Add half the Fajita Spice Blend (all for 4 servings), a drizzle of oil, and juice from half the lime; season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until chicken is warmed through, 90 seconds.
