We love Beef Fajitas, as we're sure many of you do too. But sometimes, you want to shake things up. These Keto Chicken Fajitas definitely shake things up. Tender chicken and vibrant, crunchy red onions and bell peppers are tossed in a homemade Fajita seasoning. Then they're simmered in savory chicken broth for a dish the whole family will love. Best of all, they contain just 8.4 grams of net carbs per serving and are ready in just 30 minutes. What more could you want?
