ONE-SKILLET CHICKEN FAJITA PASTA
You can have this quick, easy fajita pasta on the table in no time. We love the kicked-up Southwestern flavor, and I like being able to make the whole meal in my cast-iron skillet. I sometimes garnish it with crushed corn chips. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas
