All Steps

1. 1

   Slice chicken breasts into 1/2-inch strips. In a bowl, toss chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning, and half of the lime juice. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. 2

   Slice bell peppers and onion into thin strips. In a separate bowl, toss vegetables with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning.

3. 3

   Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

4. 4

   Add the seasoned vegetables to the same hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.

5. 5

   Return the cooked chicken to the pan with the vegetables. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes to heat through. Squeeze the remaining lime juice over the mixture.

6. 6

   Warm tortillas according to package directions (microwave, oven, or dry skillet).

7. 7

   Serve the sizzling chicken and vegetable mixture immediately with warm tortillas and your favorite toppings like sour cream and salsa.
