Rachel's Fajitas Over Cilantro Lime Rice

I thought I would showcase one of my sister-in-law's weight watcher meals because she has been such a help  and encouragement to me in my weight loss journey! She has us over for a point-friendly meal every Saturday, and this week we had fajitas with a side of sauteed green beans and asparagus! Yummy :-)

Fajita Ingredients:
2lbs boneless skinless chicken breast (trimmed of fat and cut into strips)
1 Red & Green bell pepper cut into thin strips (or one bag frozen mixed bell peppers)
1 onion cut into thin strips
1 package chicken fajita seasoning
1 package chicken taco seasoning
2tsp olive oil
2/3 cup water

Directions:
Sauteed vegetables in 2 tsp of olive oil until tender. Set aside.  Add chicken to pan and cook until no longer pink. Return veggies to pan and add seasoning and water.  Bring to a boil and then allow to simmer until water is almost gone (about 10mintues)

Cilantro Lime Rice Ingredients:
3 cups cooked white rice
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
juice of one lime
1/4 tsp salt

Directions
Mix all ingredients together

Serve Fajitas over rice and top with 2% cheese or low fat sour creams

Fajitas make 6 servings at at 6 weight watcher points each. 1/2 cup of cilantro lime rice is 2 weight watcher points. Add additional points for cheese and sour cream.
