Method

Preparation

Prep the Ingredients

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken, olive oil, fajita seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

Cook the Chicken

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until they are softened and slightly caramelized.

Combine Chicken and Vegetables

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir to combine and heat through for another 2 minutes.

Assembly

Prepare the Tortillas

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.

Assemble the Fajitas

On each tortilla, add a portion of the chicken and vegetable mixture. Top with sour cream, shredded cheese, and guacamole. Fold the tortillas over to enclose the filling.
