Chicken fajitas

My lovely hubby constantly goes on about the chicken fajitas they make at his work and how amazing they are. In his opinion mine are never as good ... Until now!!! He finally explained what mine was lacking was a sauce. So I tweaked my recipe and voila! This one has lots of veggies, lots of flavour and makes one chicken breast go a long way.

Serves 2
1 chicken breast sliced into strips
1tsp olive oil
1 onion sliced
1/2 red, yellow and green peppers sliced
1 clove garlic crushed

Spice mix:
1tsp oregano
1tsp cumin
1tsp black pepper
Pinch salt
2tsp smoked paprika
1tsp chilli powder

Tabasco sauce to taste
Hot water

Accompaniments:
4 wholemeal wraps
Salad
Grated cheddar
Natural yoghurt

1. Fry the chicken strips turning once till sealed
2. Add the onion and cook down a little
3. Add the peppers and garlic and cook till softened
4. Sprinkle over the spices and cook gently stirring often
5. Add the tomato purée, Tabasco and water to make the sauce. You want to add what looks like a little too much water as it will reduce down to make a rich sauce
6. Warm the wraps in foil in the oven
7. Serve as a build-your-own
