Preparation

  1. 15 mins

    Combine lime juice, salsa, garlic, chili powder, and cumin in a bowl. Add chicken strips and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 10 mins

    Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in 350°F oven for 10 minutes. (Use corn tortillas if you need gluten-free — check the label to make sure they're not made on shared equipment.)

  3. 3 mins

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper strips and cook until tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

  4. 6 mins

    Add marinated chicken with all the marinade to the same skillet. Cook until chicken is cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

  5. Return vegetables to the pan and toss everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Serve with warm tortillas and let everyone build their own fajitas with sour cream, cheese, and extra salsa.
