Many of my clients have a rough time getting going on their custom clean eating programs and ask me for recipe ideas. Here is a protein packed dinner with a Mexican flare. Pretty appropriate since I am flying out to Cabo this weekend to celebrate one of my clients bachelorette weekend………
-2 pounds of chicken tenders
-1 pack of low sodium fajita seasoning
-1 red bell pepper
-1 green bell pepper
-1/2 of a red onion
-4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
Chop up the onion and bell pepper into strips. Your chicken should be good to go if you purchased chicken breast tenders. If not, chop into strips as well. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet and cook the chicken until it’s no longer pink inside. Remove the chicken and begin to heat the other 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the bell peppers and onion and brown lightly. Add the chicken back in as well as the fajita seasoning and follow the directions on the seasoning pack.
If you are avoiding carbs, eat on a bed of lettuce. If you are gluten free, load up a corn tortilla or two. If you are carb loading, pair it with a whole wheat tortilla. You can also add avocado, guacamole and salsa for extra flavor. Enjoy your tasty meal in a matter of 20 minutes total prep time.
Remember……..”No Excuses and that’s No Mullarkey”! You can still make clean eating taste delicious. Please continue to follow along for more clean eating recipe ideas and fitness tips.
