Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the chicken breast, olive oil, and fajita seasoning. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cook the Vegetables

  1. 2

    Slice the Vegetables

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

  2. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Cook the Chicken

  1. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed, and heat over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assemble the Fajitas

  1. 5

    Slice the Chicken

    Once the chicken has rested, slice it into strips.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  3. 7

    Assemble the Plate

    On each tortilla, layer the sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, and desired toppings: sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
