What you need:
1 medium onion
1 lime
3 bell peppers red, yellow, green or orange
3 tablespoons olive oil divided
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cumin
salt to taste
Mix seasoning blend Slice chicken into thin strips. Cut onion & peppers into thin slices
How to Make it:
In a separate bowl, combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, juice of 1/2 lime, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, pepper, cumin and salt. Cut chicken into strips and toss with the spice mixture. Leave marinate for 30 minutes to an hour, leave out to warm up before cooking for best flavor.
In a large skillet preheat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high. Add 1/2 of the chicken and cook until just cooked, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken. (You can make fajitas on the grill if you prefer)
Set chicken aside and add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Drain onions well and cook 2 minutes. Add in sliced peppers and cook an additional 2 minutes or just until hot. Add chicken back to the pan and stir to combine.
Add toppings how you like your fajitas, we used lots of peppers, onions and some used tomatoes too, and sour cream.
Squeeze additional lime overtop and serve over tortillas.Top with Green Salsa for extra delicious flavor
Recipe Notes
Optional: Soaking the onions in cold water for a bit takes a bit of the "bite" out of them.
Fill your tortilla shells with your favorite toppings!
