Or at least, I started out with that recipe. I ended up with chicken fajitas. And they were awesome.
Blackened Chicken Fajitas with Guacamole
Adapted from: Seared Chicken with Avocado; Blackened Seasoning; & Alton Brown's Guacamole Recipe
Guacamole Ingredients:
1 avocado
1/2 lime
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp caynne
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/2 jalapeno
3 campari tomatoes diced
Lots of chopped cilantro
2-3 cloves of garlic
Blackened Chicken and Pepper & Onion Ingredients
7.5 ounce chicken breast
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 onion sliced
1 red pepper sliced
2 La Tortilla Factory Low Carb Tortillas
1/4 cup fat free sour cream
Blackened Seasoning Ingredients: (not 100% accurate/I'm never going to be able to recreate this)
heaping 1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp ground cayenne papper
a decent amount of black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp cumin
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375
Make the guacamole - scoop avocado into bowl, squeeze 1/2 lime on top, add remaining ingredients and stir to combine (without overly mashing avocado); set aside at room temperature for 1 hour
Gently squeeze 1/2 lime over chicken breast; top with blackening seasoning; bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes
Saute peppers & onions in olive oil
When chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes; set aside peppers & onions and heat tortillas in the same skillet
Assemble fajitas, top with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
Take pictures, text them to people to brag and then write a blog post about it.

Training plan - run 18 minutes
My plan - warm up 2 minutes; run 18 minutes, cool down 5 minutes; try to maintain at least 9:30 for the 18 minutes
Actual - Ended up pushing hard than I thought I would/could! Ended up running intervals with no interval slower than about a 9:00 mile and I added in some incline this time around. I felt pretty good while doing it as well!
