Peter Piper may have picked a peck of pickled peppers, but if Peter procured these fabulous fajita-flavored fancies, he would have left that bubbling brine far behind. In fact, with the taco-seasoned chicken and classic pico de gallo as innards, these peppers would sell faster than any seashells sold by the seashore by someone named Sally. Now, read this description aloud five times fast…
