0 1 2 3             Hi. My name is Ella Perkin and I’m going to give you directions on how

to make chicken fajitas.

0 1 2 3             I’m one of those people who likes to cook things in the microwave, and if you’re one of those people who don’t know how to cook, this is a very easy thing to make.

0 1 2 3             (First) you need to go to the grocery store and buy some boneless, skinless chicken, flour tortillas, salsa, one green pepper, one red pepper, and an onion.

0 1 2 3             (Then) you take the chicken and cut it on a cutting board into small pieces. (And) cook it in a big wok pan. You should cook it and make sure it’s thoroughly cooked because if it’s a little raw in the middle you could get very sick.

0 1 2 3             (When) the chicken is thoroughly cooked you take it out of the pan (and) put it onto a plate. (And now) you want to cut the vegetables. But (before) you cut the vegetables you want to make sure that you wash off the cutting board and the knife so that, again, you don’t get sick from the raw chicken that was just on there.

0 1 2 3             You cut the green pepper and you want to make sure that you take the core out of the green pepper and cut it into small pieces. (And) cut the onion into small pieces. And when you cut the onion you might start crying. (Then) you cut the red pepper and it’s just like the green pepper- you cut the core out and 9then) you slice it into pieces and 9then) cut it in the opposite way into small squares.

0 1 2 3             (Now) you need to add some oil into the pan (before) you cook the vegetables because the vegetables don’t have any fat in them like the chicken does, so if you don’t put oil into the pan they (will stick) to the bottom of the pan. (Then) you- (now) you put the vegetables into the pan and cook them for a few minutes til they are slightly crisp and brown. (Now) you can add the chicken back into the pan. And also I forgot to mention earlier that you also need to buy a packet of chicken fajita spice mix at the grocery store. You add that into the pan with the chicken and the vegetables and 1 cup of water.

0 1 2 3             (And) you put this now onto a lower heat and mix it for a few minutes and the water (will thicken up) into a nice thick sauce. You (will now) take the tortillas and just pop them in the microwave for a minute. (And now) take the fajita mixture, put it into a bowl and you can just have a little nice buffet and this (should serve) five to six people, and it makes a nice dinner.
