    Super tasty. I pan fried instead of baking, turned out delish. I would add an onion :-)

        Yum and fast. I forgot to put the lime juice in which I’m sure would have made it even better. Will make again.

            I made quesadillas with Carb balance tortillas and topped with avocado and it was delicious.

              A very good recipe. All the family love’s Mexican food but I’m the only one on keto. They had the tortilla and I used lettuce leaves. No need to cook separate dishes. Win win for me!!

              I did not like the taste of this recipe. I couldn't save the extra veggies that were left over to use later, because of the combination of spices on it. I dont know if there was any one herb/spice or the combination but my entire family agreed that it was not good

                This is so good! I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t have a lime on hand so I just did two tablespoons of lime juice and it was perfect. This tasted better than fajitas at a restaurant.

                This is a good base recipe. I followed the recipe as written then I added fresh green beans, 1/2 Vidalia onion and I used Cajun seasoning in place of the coriander to spice it up a bit. I do my meal prep on the weekends and I look forward to having this as my lunch this week.

                I have reduced the recipe so that it yields one recipe which the chicken is 1/4 pound alone. Isn't this more than the whole serving size of 100g?

                  100 grams is approximately 1/4 lb (1 lb is 454 grams)
