This Tex-Mex dish, which was born on both sides of the border in the early 20th century, consists of strips of grilled meat that have been combined with sliced peppers and onions in order to make the filling for tacos or burritos.
My favorite way to prepare fajitas is with chicken, and it’s so easy to make at home. Here’s how to prepare your own perfect chicken fajitas in the comfort of your own kitchen.
Ingredients
1 large chicken breast
½ red pepper
½ green pepper
1 medium onion
1 tbsp olive oil
½ tablespoon garlic powder
½ tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon cumin
Instructions
Start off by cutting the large chicken breast into thin strips. Go ahead and season the chicken with half of all of the spices and then set aside.
Next, you’ll want to slice the red and green pepper as well as the medium onion into thin strips. Go ahead and put them into a large skillet with a tablespoon of olive oil and add the other half of the spices into the pan. Sautee them on medium-high heat until they start to soften.
After this, add the chicken cuts into the pan. Reduce the pan’s heat slightly, and then leave the chicken inside to cook thoroughly with the peppers and onions for approximately 5 minutes.
Your fajitas are done! Now, you can serve them in tacos or burritos with other ingredients like sour cream and guacamole. Enjoy!
