Chicken Fajitas

While taking care of my grandsons I made these for dinner and they were a huge hit.  Make easy homemade guac to accompany it!

Chicken Fajitas

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 onion, thinly sliced

1 green pepper, thinly sliced

1 red pepper, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 lime

Fajita Seasoning

1/2 tablespoon chili powder

1/2 tablespoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon oregano

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

For Serving

Tortillas (I used Whole Foods brand combo of soft white flour and corn tortillas and loved them).

Sour Cream

Pico de Gallo

Avocado or homemade guacamole or both.

Instructions:

Mix the fajitas seasoning ingredients in a small bowl.

Generously sprinkle the fajita seasoning on both sides of the chicken and use your fingers to press it into the chicken.

Heat the oil in a large skillet.  Sear the chicken breasts for about 7 - 8 minutes on each side.

Once the chicken is done, remove it to a plate and let it rest for a couple of minutes.  Add the peppers and onion to the same skillet and saute for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently.

When the peppers are just about done, slice the chicken breasts into strips.

Add the chicken back into the skillet, add a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and stir everything together.

Serve immediately with warmed tortillas and extra toppings.
