This dinner is quick and easy and customizable to your taste. Use whatever color peppers you like--red, orange, green--or a combination of all of them. And if you have peppers in your garden--a bonus! We enjoyed these topped with shredded cheddar cheese (hubby wants shredded cheese on anything Mexican or Tex-Mex) and some sour cream. If you like cilantro, feel free to sprinkle some on as well. Feel free to use your own fajita seasoning, but this was very good--not too spicy since hubby can't tolerate anything too hot. This is adapted from a recipe on the Skinnyish Dish.
1 lb. chicken breast cut into thin slices (it’s easier if the meat is slightly frozen)
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 red onion, cut into strips
2-3 medium bell peppers, cut into strips
3 tsp oil, divided

Salt and pepper, to taste
Tortillas
Juice of one lime and cilantro (optional)

Preheat air fryer (if required by your air fryer) to 400 degrees. Spray basket with cooking spray and add chicken mixture.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking basket occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Cranberry Cove #7 is finally here! Publication date: September 20.
Monica's stepmother wakes up next to a dead man! Did she do it?
An unscrupulous realtor pays the ultimate closing costs in the new Cranberry Cove Mystery from USA Today bestselling author Peg Cochran!
Autumn
is settling in on Cranberry Cove, but things are starting to heat up
when Monica’s stepmother shows up at her back door gripped by panic.
Gasping out an explanation, she tells Monica she’d been dozing in her
realtor’s car when he was shot dead. Refusing to alert the police for
fear that the killer will target her next—or that the police will
consider her their prime suspect—Monica’s stepmother goes mute, and
Monica decides to track down the culprit herself to clear her name and
keep her safe.
Finding the killer won’t be so easy, though, as
the victim had run afoul of buyers, sellers, and even other realtors at
one time or another, and it seems that nearly everyone in the small town
had a reason to want him dead. Even more puzzling is that the deeper
Monica digs into the background and final days of the victim, the more
the clues point to her stepmother. Then a second body is found, and
Monica realizes she’s going up against a devious killer who will stop at
nothing to put everyone involved out of commission . . .
Your fajita mixture sounds delicious.
