The Specialty of the House

Billy practically begs for Chicken Peach Fajitas - I told him I think they are great, but they're nothing special, and he said that they are special because we only make them during peach season (June-July). So since they are special after all, here's the recipe:

About a pound of chicken sliced into strips, a sliced onion, a sliced bell pepper, about three peaches in syrup (cut them up and toss with a tablespoon of sugar the night before), and fajita seasoning.

Brown the chicken in a large skillet with 1 T of olive oil. I don't remember how long I cooked the chicken but the lovely McCormick Fajita Season Mix packet will tell you.

Transfer to a clean plate.

Suck your stomach in and smile for the camera!

Put the onions and bell peppers in with another tablespoon of olive oil and saute for 3 minutes.

Add the peaches and the chicken back to the onions and bell peppers - the directions are going to tell you to also add 1/4 c water - I drain as much liquid as I can from my peaches (this time it was about half that) and filled the rest up with water.

The all-important seasoning. 

Saute until warm then serve!

I typically don't put much on these - I only put salsa on one of them, but I did put hot sauce on both. I recommend a hot sauce that is somewhat fruity - above we have Island Grove Jamaican Hot Sauce (warning - not hot at all!), Pele's Hawaiian Volcano Sauce (I think this came from San Diego), Pace salsa (pepperheads, don't hate me - it was on sale), Galito's Garlic Peri Peri Sauce (also known around these parts as the only sauce that can make tofu taste awesome), and Prissy's of Vidalia's Vidalia Onion & Peach Sauce (also not hot).
