Brad's Famous Fajitas

I'm not sure if Brad is actually famous for these fajitas outside of our own family. He started making them when we were dating and they are still a favorite. Phoebe even told me today that she wanted to eat them every night for dinner! This is a basic recipe that will feed about 4 adults. We double it often to have lots of leftovers because it makes the very best leftovers and they can be used for quesadillas, too.

Brad's Famous Fajitas
1 lb. chicken boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into long strips (You can also use breast tenderloins, but some of them might need to be cut even thinner.)
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
1 onion, cut into strips
1/4-1/2 cup of butter (yeah, you read that right)
Fiesta Fajita Seasoning (This is key. It cannot be any other fajita seasoning. You can find it at Wal-Mart or Sam's or even ONLINE.)
flour tortillas
sour cream
salsa
grated cheese

Season chicken liberally with Fiesta Fajita Seasoning. Melt half a stick of butter over high heat in a large skillet. Brown chicken until completely cooked through. Taste for seasonings. You want it to be good and seasoned. If it tastes bland at all, add more. Remove to a plate and keep warm. Add two more tablespoons of butter to the skillet and let melt. Throw in the veggies and season liberally. Brown veggies over high heat until tender. Add more butter, if needed. You want there to be some liquid in with your veggies because it makes a nice "sauce" for the chicken and veggies. Add chicken back to the pan. Warm tortillas. We like to cook them on both sides on a hot griddle, but you can also just wrap them in foil and heat them for 15-20 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Serve them with sour cream, salsa, and cheese (or anything else you'd like).
