Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Add garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and lime juice to the chicken. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly with the spices. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Slice the Vegetables

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

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet with the chicken. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 5

    Assemble and Serve

    Warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave. Once warmed, fill each tortilla with the chicken and vegetable mixture. Serve immediately with additional lime wedges and toppings of your choice.
