EASY CHEESY FAJITA CHICKEN AND RICE



Easy Cheesy Fajita Chicken and Rice image

I came up with this recipe one night while submerged in the depths of a fajita craving. I serve it over white rice with the cheese blend melted down over top. Sometimes I spice things up with a dollop of sour cream; as it melts down over the hot chicken and rice it makes the juice all creamy and delicious.
