Method

Preparation Steps

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, fajita seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Vegetables

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

Cook the Chicken

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let it rest before slicing it into strips.

Cook the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until they are tender and slightly charred.

Warm the Tortillas

In a separate pan, warm the tortillas over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until soft.

Assemble Fajitas

To serve, place a portion of chicken and sautéed vegetables on each tortilla. Top with optional sour cream, guacamole, and shredded cheese if desired.
