I was going to upload a picture only to realize, I ate all of this before capturing it on film. I decreased the chili powder to 3/4 tsp. and increased the cumin to 3/4 tsp. per personal preference. I used Full Circle Organic mild salsa (about 1 c. with extra on the side of each serving) I would definitely recommend this as a fajita dish filling but alone with crunchy tortillas made for a nice summer lunch! Thanks!

Just like the description says - quick and easy! Easily adaptable for whichever spices you might like to add (I have a seasoning salt I just love which was great in this dish). I made this dish when I was somewhat in a pinch and did not have tortillas available, but I think they would be great with tortillas and will plan ahead next time. This is a keeper for a quick and easy dinner that will please the whole family.

This recipe was easy to make. Spicy--which is how we like it. The taste is wonderful. We had it with steamed rice, which complemented this dish very nicely.
