Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or 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 4 hours for more flavor.

Cooking the Chicken and Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    While the chicken is grilling, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. In a skillet, add a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 6

    Slice the Chicken

    Once the chicken is done, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Then, slice it into strips.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for a few seconds. To serve, place some grilled chicken and sautéed vegetables on each tortilla. Top with sour cream, salsa, and shredded cheese. Roll up the tortillas and enjoy!
