Chicken Fajita Skewers

Chicken Fajita Skewers are fresh, tasty, healthy, colorful, and the ultimate summer grilled food that everyone loves. My family loves it especially with a bowl of Spanish rice and beans.

To lighten up my recipe, I used a mixture of oil with lime juice and my own herbs and spices to marinate chicken.

The combination of this extravagant oil and delectable chicken definitely called for a family cookout!

The oil provided a rich, tender taste that left all of our mouths watering before we could dive into the meal. When serving this meal you and your family are guaranteed to never be left disappointed. It is really that good!

Skewers

The dish is pretty amazing and we did not step away too far from the authenticity. However, to lighten up my recipe, I used skewers instead of serving it traditionally in tortillas.

You can use any oil that you prefer, which was fantastic. The oil keeps chicken moist and juicy while grilling. Also, I love using my own spice and herb blend for his chicken fajita instead of the store-bought.

I believe it is much healthier, plus you are in control of which herb and spice you are going to use. That makes sense, right?

So, this summer I have decided to share with you the best of my recipes from the grill. It is my absolute favorite way of cooking so I cannot wait to share!

Chicken Fajita Skewers

Chicken Fajita Skewers

Chicken Fajita Skewers are fresh, tasty, healthy, colorful, and the ultimate summer grilled food that everyone loves.

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons (42 g) oil
  • Juice of 1 lime, preferably ripe
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro or flat-leaf parsley
  • 3 pounds (1.3 kg) chicken breast, cubed (approximately 3 whole chicken breast)
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • 1 orange bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • 1/2 large red onion, chopped into bite-sized chunks

FAJITA SEASONING

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Combine the seasoning and set aside. Now, mix together oil and lemon juice.
  2. Cut chicken with a sharp knife into approximately the same bite-size pieces as cubes, then rub seasoning all over. Drizzle oil and lemon juice mixture over seasoned chicken and massage it. Cover and place the chicken in the fridge and allow to marinate for about 30 minutes.
  3. Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers with the peppers and onions. There is no right and wrong, I just like to mix it up, so the skewers look colorful and pretty. Place back in the marinade and allow to marinate until you are ready to cook.
  4. Cook the chicken fajita skewers on the grill for about 20-25 minutes. Turn and brush with oil every 10 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear. Allow it to rest for a few minutes.
  5. Serve with rice and beans, tortillas, and salad.

Notes

You may use beef for this as well. I recommend my seasoning recipe, but you may use store-bought too. In the case, you are using store-bought, just add cilantro or parsley, corn oil, and lime juice for extra tasty and tender chicken skewers.

You may use fajita sauce and drizzle over the skewers to keep the chicken juicy.

Beef Chili Baked Potatoes

Beef Chili Baked Potato Recipe

An easy and very tasty recipe for Beef Chili Baked Potatoes. It took me a while until I finally decided to post this gem.

My dear family loves many, many dishes that I make. I will be honest, beef chili baked potatoes are probably in the TOP 10.

They could not stop eating it. I had to double the recipe the next time I made it. My daughter, Anna, made this huge bowl of salad and I set all the baked potato toppings. That’s how we enjoy these stuffed baked potatoes.

Chili is one amazing dinner or becomes potluck or party food in an instant, especially during Superbowl party.

However, stuff hot chili in the baked potato and top it with the cheese… well, you got yourself a winner right there. Don’t you agree?

Beef Chili Baked Potatoes

You can indeed make it even vegetarian just by making meatless chili.

I mean, cooking to me is all about making it approachable for everyone. Well, I genuinely like carrying out an idea, so if the adapted recipe is not exactly the same that is perfectly alright.

I absolutely wish that people cook more at home rather than going out to eat every other meal.

Beef Chili Baked Potato Recipe

That being said, I cannot even imagine eating out daily, so that is why I cook at home all kinds of delicious foods.

Nevertheless, I hope you guys try this one. You can even prep ahead by making homemade chili and storing it in the fridge.

Beef Chili Baked Potatoes

Beef Chili Baked Potatoes

An easy and simple recipe for these tasty Beef Chili Stuffed Baked Potatoes

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 large Baking Potatoes + Salt Oil
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 pound ground Beef 20/80
  • 1/2 Onion chopped
  • 2 16-ounce can Red Chili Beans, undrained
  • 1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
  • 8 oz Tomato Sauce
  • 1 cup Beef Broth
  • 1 Chili Pouch Seasoning
  • Salt and Ground Black Pepper to taste
  • Toppings: shredded Cheddar cheese sour cream, chopped green onions or chives
  • Serve it with Salad

Instructions

  1. Cook ground beef and onion in a pot, stirring until beef crumbles and is no longer pink; drain the fat out. Stir in beans and the rest of the ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, stirring occasionally cook the chili for about 20 minutes.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Scrub and dry the potatoes. Pierce the potato with a fork. Rub oil all over the potatoes. Rub salt all over the potatoes. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until tender. You can also wrap each potato with aluminum foil. Aluminum foil helps the skin on your potato stay nice and soft, but it is not necessary to use the foil.
  3. Cut the potatoes in the middle then press lightly to open the potatoes.
  4. Add chili and topped with the cheese if you wish, and place back to the oven under broil for a minute or so until the cheese is completely melted.

Beef Chili Stuffed Baked Potatoes

Notes

  • If you like less chili on your potato, freeze half of mixture up to 3 months. Make sure the chili stuffed potatoes are completely cooled before wrapping them and placing in the freezer. 
  • Thaw in the refrigerator, and microwave at HIGH checking occasionally, until thoroughly heated.
  • If I have any leftovers I like keeping it in the fridge for a couple of days. Usually, it is all gone in a day or two.
