Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the chicken strips with olive oil, fajita seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat evenly.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. In a large skillet or grill pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, sautéing until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed, and add the marinated chicken. Cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Return the sautéed peppers and onions to the skillet with the chicken. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture and stir to combine. Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave, then serve the chicken and vegetable mixture in the tortillas. Enjoy with lime wedges on the side.
