Broiled Chicken Fajitas

I love chicken fajitas and on busy weeknights I need a dinner that is quick to put together.  I chopped the vegetables over and coated the chicken in spices over the weekend so all I had to do was turn on the oven and broil.  Then we topped our fajitas with our favorite toppings: cheese, salsa, guacamole, and plain nonfat Greek yogurt.

Recipe adapted from Food Network

2-3 bell peppers sliced
