  • “Really nice twist on fajitas!Mixing the salsa into the peppers and onions was a good touch.I included the optional coriander, since we love it – great addition!The marinade gave a lovely citrus highlight to the chicken.I ended up marinating for one hour.I omitted the salt (personal preference).Thanks for sharing!”
