While I rarely eat processed foods and flour products, I do believe that you need to find your balance with what you choose to eat. I rarely have flour products (regular bread, pasta etc... I eat Ezekiel brand bread which is flourless), however I will have them on occasion. I was really in the mood for a dinner with peppers and onions so I knew fajitas would be perfect! If you are going to eat flour products such as breads, pastas, wraps or tortillas, make sure they have at least 5 grams of fiber.
Marinade chicken breasts in lime juice and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and chili powder. While the chicken marinades, heat a large skillet with a tablespoon of olive oil on medium heat. Slice pepper and onion into long strips.
Cook brown rice according to directions. Add pepper and onion to large skillet and cook until tender. Cook chicken on stove until cooked. Once everything is cooked, chop chicken and add chicken, peppers, and onion to tortilla. Top with small spoonful of sour cream if desired. When rice is cooked, add a handful of fresh parm and stir well. Add parsley to rice as well and stir and enjoy!
