Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Add olive oil, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Slice the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, wash and slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until cooked through and lightly browned.

  2. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed, then add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

  3. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Toss everything together to combine and heat through for an additional 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately with warm flour tortillas, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa on the side.
