Proteins

1 1/8 lb (500 grams) Chicken breast

Vegetables

2 cups Bell peppers (mixed colors)

1 cup Onion

Spices

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Cumin

1 teaspoon Chili powder

1 teaspoon Watkins garlic powder

1 teaspoon Watkins paprika

1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

Tortillas

4 pieces Flour tortillas

Toppings

1 cup Sour cream

1 cup Shredded cheese

1 cup Guacamole

1/2 cup Fresh cilantro

Method

Preparation

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, mix olive oil, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and ensure it is evenly coated with the spice mixture. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Vegetables

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

Cooking

Cook the Chicken

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Assembly

Assemble the Fajitas

Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan or microwave. On each tortilla, layer the sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, and fresh cilantro. Roll up the tortillas and serve immediately.
