Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken or Steak

    Season the chicken breast or steak with olive oil, salt, pepper, cumin, and paprika. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken or Steak

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. If using steak, cook to your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pan, add a little more olive oil if needed and sauté the sliced bell pepper and onion until they are soft and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Slice the cooked chicken or steak into strips. Place a few strips on each tortilla, top with sautéed vegetables, lettuce, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with additional toppings as desired.
