Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Chicken Fajita Melts.
Step 1
To start your delicious chicken sandwiches, grab a large skillet and warm up some vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in your sliced chicken.
Step 3
Cook it while stirring frequently until it turns a lovely light brown, which should take about five minutes.
Step 4
Next, add in the sliced onions and vibrant red bell peppers.
Step 5
Keep stirring and cooking for another five minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften and release their sweet aroma.
Step 6
Now it’s time to bring in the flavor! Pour in the tomato juice and sprinkle the taco seasoning mix over the chicken and veggies.
Step 7
Stir everything together until well combined, then let it simmer for about seven minutes.
Step 8
This will help the mixture thicken and ensure the chicken is beautifully coated in that zesty sauce.
Step 9
While that’s happening, preheat your oven’s broiler and adjust the rack so it’s about six inches from the heat source.
Step 10
Now, let’s prepare the bread! Take your French bread slices and spread two tablespoons of salsa on each one.
Step 11
Generously top each slice with the savory chicken mixture, making sure to distribute it evenly.
Step 12
For the finishing touch, sprinkle a quarter cup of shredded Cheddar cheese over each sandwich.
Step 13
Place your creations under the broiler and keep an eye on them as they cook for about five minutes.
Step 14
You’ll know they’re ready when the cheese is melted and starting to turn a beautiful golden brown.
Step 15
Enjoy the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen as you prepare to savor these mouthwatering sandwiches!.
