Meat

1 1/8 lb (500 grams) Chicken breast

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Chili powder

1 teaspoon Cumin

1 teaspoon Watkins garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Vegetables

3 pieces Bell peppers (red, green, yellow)

1 large Onion

Serving

4 pieces Flour tortillas

1/2 cup Sour cream

1/2 cup Guacamole

1/2 cup Salsa

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, mix together olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. This will be used to marinate the chicken.

Marinate the Chicken

Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and add them to the marinade. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

Sauté the Vegetables

While the chicken is marinating, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the vegetables until they are soft and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cook the Chicken

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Heat over medium-high heat and add the marinated chicken strips. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char.

Combine

Once the chicken is cooked, add the sautéed peppers and onions back into the skillet. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2 minutes to combine the flavors.

Serving

Prepare the Tortillas

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until they are soft and pliable.

Serve

Serve the sizzling chicken and vegetable mixture in the warm tortillas. Top with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa as desired.
