Ingredients Chicken: • 4 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast, sliced into thin strips
Fajita Seasoning: • 1 tsp chili powder • 1/2 tsp cumin • 1/4 tsp paprika • 1/4 tsp garlic powder • Salt and pepper to taste
Veggies: • 1 tbsp olive oil • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color) • 1/2 cup sliced onions
Base: • 1/2 cup cooked brown rice
Toppings: • 1/4 cup salsa • 1/4 cup guacamole (optional)
Instructions 1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine sliced chicken with fajita seasoning. Toss to coat evenly and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. 2. Cook Veggies: Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced bell peppers and onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are slightly softened and have some char, about 6–8 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. 3. Cook Chicken: In the same pan, cook the marinated chicken strips over medium-high heat until cooked through and slightly browned, about 5–7 minutes. 4. Assemble the Bowl: Divide cooked brown rice between meal prep containers. Top with cooked chicken, fajita vegetables, salsa, and guacamole (if using).
Tips for Meal Prepping: • You can use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken to save time. • Store the toppings (salsa and guacamole) separately to prevent the rice and chicken from getting soggy. • For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with tofu or tempeh.
