CHIPOTLE CHICKEN FAJITAS
I've had this fajita recipe for three years and my husband and I just love it. Be careful with the chipotle peppers as they can be very hot. I changed it up a little to fit our taste. You may want to adjust the amount to your preference. -Melissa Thomeczek, Hannibal, Missouri
