Fajita Chicken Pasta

This fantastic pasta dish combines the delicious flavors of chicken fajitas in one mouth-watering meal that is perfect for the entire family.

I love fajita’s – I think it is all the different components – the seasoning and flavours, the grilled meat, onions and peppers, then all the amazing toppings from soured cream, to cheddar and cilantro.

But then there are the flour tortillas that are not exactly . There are some tortillas/wraps that are low calorie, but let’s face it, one tortilla is never going to cut it for me when I fancy fajitas, so this Fajita Chicken Pasta is a perfect way around that.
