Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Onion
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fajita seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 servings Cooked rice or tortillas (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.
In a small bowl, mix together the fajita seasoning, soy sauce, and lime juice. Set aside.
Slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into thin strips. Peel and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onion and garlic, and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the bell peppers to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Pour the fajita seasoning mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and flavors to meld together.
Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Serve hot with cooked rice or warm tortillas, if desired. Enjoy your flavorful fajita stir fry!
