Mexican Chicken Fajitas

Tender, marinated chicken breast sizzled with vibrant peppers and onions, served with warm tortillas and all the classic fajita fixings.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 3 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 3 medium bell peppers, sliced into strips (mix of red, yellow, and green)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 12 small tortillas, corn or flour
  • 1 toppings, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, etc.

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder. Toss to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour in the refrigerator.

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned.
