Ingredients

• 1 pound of chicken or beef
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium-sized onion
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 teaspoon of chili powder
• 1 teaspoon of cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon of paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
• Juice of 1 lime
• Tortillas
• Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, etc.

Instructions

1. Prepare the Meat: Start by thinly slicing the chicken or beef into long, narrow strips. Season the meat with chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all the strips are coated evenly.
2. Marinate the Meat: In a bowl, squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the seasoned meat. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. This step enhances the flavors and creates juicy, tender fajita meat.
3. Cut the Vegetables: Cut the bell peppers and onion into thin strips, similar in size to the meat slices. Set them aside.
4. Sauté the Veggies: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Sauté them until they become slightly softened and lightly caramelized. Remove the veggies from the skillet and set them aside.
5. Cook the Meat: In the same skillet, heat another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the marinated meat to the skillet and cook over medium-high heat until it is browned and cooked through. Make sure to stir occasionally for even cooking.
6. Combine and Serve: Once the meat is cooked, add the sautéed vegetables back to the skillet. Toss everything together and let it cook for another minute or two, allowing the flavors to meld together. Your delicious fajita mixture is now ready to be served!
7. Warm the Tortillas: To serve the fajitas, warm the tortillas on a hot skillet or in the microwave. This step ensures that your tortillas are soft and pliable for wrapping.
8. Assemble and Enjoy: Place a generous amount of the fajita mixture onto each warmed tortilla. Add any optional toppings you desire, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, or salsa. Fold the tortilla gently, and your mouthwatering fajita is now ready to be savored!
