    Chicken fajitas always reminds me of my husband, its the first dish he ever cooked for me when we were dating and its the only dish he orders if we go out for Mexican! So naturally a pasta dish, with chicken, peppers and spices was well received at home when I made this dish. Tommy had the idea to add avocado to the dish, because he loves guacamole with his fajitas and loved it!
