Fajitas

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Slice the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into thin strips. This helps them cook evenly and quickly.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced chicken, olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Cover and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

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

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.

  5. 5

    Add the Vegetables

    Once the chicken is cooked, add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  6. 6

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, warm the flour tortillas over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the chicken and vegetable mixture on warm tortillas and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy your Chicken Fajitas Picado!
