Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Chicken and Vegetables

    Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips. Then, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips as well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken with olive oil and fajita seasoning. Toss until the chicken is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat, add the marinated chicken. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

  2. 4

    Add Vegetables

    Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 5

    Warm Tortillas

    While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until they are soft and pliable.

  2. 6

    Assemble Fajitas

    To serve, place a portion of the chicken and vegetable mixture onto a warm tortilla. Top with your choice of sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, and salsa. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top if desired.
