Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat it with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator 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

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 5

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. To serve, place some sliced chicken and sautéed vegetables onto a tortilla. Add optional toppings like sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, and lime wedges as desired. Roll the tortilla around the filling and enjoy!
