Servings: 10 fajitas
Calories: 349kcal
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast cut into strips
- 1 red pepper finely sliced
- 1 onion finely sliced
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- juice of one lemon
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 chilies finely chopped (optional)
For Serving:
- ½ head iceberg lettuce roughly torn
- 1 large tomato chopped
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups cheddar cheese grated
- 1 cup Guacamole
- 10 Flour Tortillas
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken with garlic, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, cumin, chilies (if using), salt and pepper. Stir to coat the chicken, then cover and refrigerate for several hours.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet add the other tablespoon of olive oil with the peppers and onions. Cook over high heat for a few minutes until they are slightly browned. Then reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook until they are quite soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In another skillet, turn heat to high and add the chicken. Stir frequently and cook the chicken over high heat for about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat along with the peppers and onions. I like to serve the chicken on top of the peppers and onions as shown above. Serve with the Avocado dip, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, sour cream and Flour Tortillas. Enjoy!
