Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well. Add the chicken breast and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

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

Cooking

  1. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Once cooked, remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Slice the grilled chicken into strips and add it to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Toss everything together to combine. Serve hot with flour tortillas, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa on the side.
