Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Slice the bell peppers into thin strips and chop the onion into thin slices. Mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated chicken. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  3. 5

    Combine Chicken and Vegetables

    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2 minutes to combine flavors.

Serving

  1. 6

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top with sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
