Chicken Fajitas cooked slowly allows the flavours to marinate and the meat to become juicy and tender, making it an ideal slow cooker meal.
Ingredients
650 g Chicken breast
1 Red pepper (capsicum) (Deseeded and cut into wedges)
1 Yellow pepper (capsicum) (Deseeded and cut into wedges)
1 Green pepper (capsicum) (Deseeded and cut into wedges)
2 Large Onions (Peeled and cut into wedges)
2 tsp Oil
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tsp Ground cumin
2 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Sea salt
1 tsp Ground black pepper
Method
1
Put everything in to the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for 5-6 hours.
2
Check the chicken is cooked through before serving. Slice and add back to the peppers.
3
NOTE: You may want to drain off some of the liquid as it can have quite a strong taste from the seasoning and make the chicken too wet.
4
OPTION: If you DO NOT want very soft peppers, and prefer them with a little texture, add them 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, rather than at the start of cooking.

NOTE: Chicken breasts vary in size and shape which will impact the cooking time. As always, check that they are cooked through before serving.
