Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast sliced into strips
  • 1 bell pepper sliced
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 4 small flour tortillas
  • 2 tbsp shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp sour cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Toss the sliced chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chicken and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until golden and cooked through, then remove and set aside.
  4. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion to the same skillet.
  5. Sauté for 5 to 6 minutes until softened and lightly charred at the edges.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss with the peppers and onions.
  7. Squeeze the lime juice over everything and toss once more.
  8. Warm the tortillas and serve the sizzling chicken and vegetables alongside them.
  9. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream.

Notes

Buy a whole bell pepper and onion instead of a pre-sliced fajita mix, and season plain chicken breast with a simple homemade or store-bought taco seasoning to keep this dinner well under $10.
