Chicken Fajitas

I found this recipe on Taste of Home. It is actually really good. I didn't take any pics though.

Chicken Fajitas


  • 4 tablespoons Extra Virgin oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
  • 1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips
  • 1/2 medium sweet red pepper, julienned
  • 1/2 medium green pepper, julienned
  • 4 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 6 corn or flour tortillas, warmed
  • Shredded cheddar cheese, taco sauce, salsa, guacamole and sour cream

  • In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice and seasonings; add the chicken. Seal and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1-4 hours.
  • In a large skillet, saute peppers and onions in remaining oil until crisp-tender. Remove and keep warm.
  • Discard marinade. In the same skillet, cook chicken over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes or until no longer pink. Return pepper mixture to pan; heat through.
  • Spoon filling down the center of tortillas; fold in half. Serve with cheese, taco sauce, salsa, guacamole and sour cream. Yield: 6 servings.
