Sizzling Chicken Fajitas

Instructions

1. 1

   Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

3. 3

   Add chicken strips to the marinade, toss to coat evenly, and let marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).

4. 4

   While chicken marinates, slice bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

5. 5

   Heat a large cast iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until very hot.

6. 6

   Remove chicken from marinade and cook in the hot skillet for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred. Transfer to a plate.

7. 7

   In the same skillet, add the sliced peppers and onions. Cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly charred.

8. 8

   Return the chicken to the skillet with the vegetables, toss everything together, and cook for another minute to combine flavors.

9. 9

   Warm tortillas by wrapping them in foil and placing in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes, or microwave wrapped in damp paper towels for 30 seconds.

10. 10

    Serve the sizzling fajita mixture immediately with warm tortillas, sour cream, shredded cheese, and fresh cilantro on the side.
