Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade. Add the chicken breast to the marinade and ensure it is well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare 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 skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breast. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave. On each tortilla, add a portion of the sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, and fresh cilantro. Roll up the tortillas and serve immediately.
