Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over high heat. When the pan is heated, add the ground chicken and chopped onion. Break up the chicken as it cooks and sauté until the meat is browned, about 3–5 minutes.
  • Add Spice World Sizzlin’ Fire Roasted Fajita Seasoning Blend, Spice World Ready-to-Use Minced Garlic, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, and water. Stir until combined, reduce the heat to medium, and let simmer until the sauce has slightly thickened, approximately 10 minutes. Once the sauce is reduced, remove from heat and stir in the freshly chopped cilantro.
