Lime – use fresh lime juice for best flavor.

Chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt and pepper – these spices give the fajitas that classic Tex Mex flavor, if you don’t have coriander you can substitute Oregano (a much different flavor but also common in fajitas).

Yellow onion and garlic – you can also use a red onion if that’s what you have on hand.

Bell peppers – I like to use a trio of red, yellow and green but really any color will work.

can of green chilies or just skip the green chilies.

Canned diced tomatoes with green chilies – if you can’t find them with green chilies you can use plain diced tomatoes and add a 4 oz.

Boneless skinless chicken breasts – I like to stick with chicken breasts here because thighs will just shred apart.Then for the days you didn’t plan ahead for a slow cooker dinner try my Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas, everything cooks together on one sheet pan.
