Ingredients

1.5 – 1.75 lb chicken breast, cut into strips
3 tablespoon your favorite fajita or taco seasoning (you can try making your own like this fajita seasoning from Rachel Cooks or this taco seasoning from The Little Kitchen)
juice from 1 lime
2 tablespoon oil
5–6 pattypan squash, sliced into half moons (3–4 of the larger varieties of squash, sliced the same way)

For serving:

corn tortillas (warmed in a dry skillet)
Bush’s Black Beans (warmed on stovetop)

Instructions

Place your chicken breast strips into a large ziplock bag or bowl. Add fajita or taco seasoning and lime and coat well.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium high heat in a large skillet. Carefully place chicken into skillet (cook in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan) for 6 -7 minutes, tossing until browned on all sides and cooked through. Continue to cook entire batch of chicken. Place chicken on a plate and set aside.
Add squash and onion to pan. Quickly saute over medium high heat for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are cooked through. Add chicken back into the pan for a minute or two and toss with vegetables to warm through. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust.
Serve in warm corn tortillas with toppings of choice.
