Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 onion diced
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 green pepper diced
  • 2 tbsp fajita spice mix
  • 3 tbsp salsa
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Slice into the chicken several times, about ¼ inch (½ cm) apart, but only cut about 85% of the way through, leaving the bottom intact.
  • Cook the onions and peppers over a medium heat until softened, then stir in the fajita mix.
  • Stir in the salsa and sprinkle the cheese over.
  • Mix together until the cheese has melted.
  • Allow to cool to the touch, and then fill each segment of the chicken breast with about 1 teaspoon of the mixture.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven for 18-22 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
  • Enjoy!
