Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 3 tablespoons oil
  • 1/2 lime juiced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder (if you don't have this you can substitute regular chili powder instead)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 medium red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
  • cilantro for serving (if desired)
  • lime wedges for serving (if desired)

Instruction

  • *NOTE: Cook time does not include marinating time*
  • Add oil, lime juice, both chili powders, cumin, paprika, garlic and onion powder to a ziplock bag. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the marinade.
  • Add in chicken and marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Spray a cast iron skillet or a regular skillet with cooking spray.
  • Add the chicken and cook over medium-high heat until cooked, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Take the chicken out of the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile add the peppers, onions and the reserved marinade to the same pan the chicken was in. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until tender.
  • While the peppers are cooking slice the chicken breast.
  • Toss the chicken back into the pan with the peppers.
  • Serve immediately with fresh cilantro and lime wedges if desired. I like to serve these Chicken Fajitas with flour tortillas, sour cream, salsa and guacamole!
