Do you just serve the salsa listed in the recipe on the side?
Julie Skeen says:

Just wondering the same thing about the salsa. Do you add before cooking or as a topping?

Wendy says:

I may be overlooking it, but is the second half of the taco seasoning packet ever used? I only notice where it says to sprinkle half over the chicken. Excited to try this, as my husband has been asking for fajitas lately!
Cheryl says:

How long do you bake it if you are using chicken tenders?
Cyd says:

Just check it around 30 minutes and see if your chicken is cooked through or if it needs a little longer. Tenders won't take quite as long as chicken breasts.
Frances Tomaiko says:

what brand of salsa did you use?
Momma Cyd says:

We use all kinds and brands. Some of our favorites are Kroger Brand, Herdez, and Pace. They all taste great!
Julie says:

Have made this at least 5-6 times now and my family loves it! We all love how delicious it is and I love how easy it is to prepare and the quick clean-up!!
Carly Daniels says:

I made this for dinner for my family of 6. I had no yellow peppers so I just did the red AND the Salsa was amazing. I got the peppers and onions presliced. At first I had some frowns of "what is that?!" Then when they finally ate it there was no leftovers! Will be making this again. I Love your swift dinner ideas. Never seen ANYONE else do what you gals do. Thank you.
Momma Cyd says:

Carly, so glad to hear that the family loved the Fajitas! And thanks so much for your support!
