BBQ Chicken Fajitas
Tex Mex food is a real favorite of mine. I love how the flavors of the cilantro and cumin complement each other so well. Cilantro and cumin give Tex Mex foods their distinct flavors. I was craving this type of food and haven’t had it in a long time so I decided to make it myself. My BBQ Chicken Fajitas are really easy to make so if you want to see how I made them, keep on reading!
