Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat evenly. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

  2. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes.

  3. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, sautéing until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 5

    Slice the Chicken

    Once the chicken has rested, slice it into thin strips.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Fajitas

    On each tortilla, layer sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, and any optional toppings such as sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, and lime wedges. Roll up the tortillas and serve immediately.
