Marinade Preparation
- 1

In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Cooking the Fajitas
- 3
Cook the Chicken
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) is reached. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Assemble the Fajitas
Slice the cooked chicken into strips. Serve with the sautéed vegetables, fresh cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, and lime wedges on the side. Let everyone assemble their own fajitas by placing chicken and vegetables in a tortilla, along with their desired toppings.
