Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Flour tortillas
- 2 cups Chicken breast, cooked and shredded
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fajita seasoning
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 whole Lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and allow it to warm up for about 1 minute.
Add the sliced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and slightly charred.
Sprinkle the fajita seasoning over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to evenly coat. Remove from heat and set aside.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of sour cream over the tortilla, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges.
Layer the shredded chicken, sautéed fajita vegetables, and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese on one side of the tortilla.
Tightly roll up the tortilla, starting from the filled side, and secure it with a toothpick if needed. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Optional: To warm the roll-ups, place them seam-side down on a clean skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until slightly golden and crisp.
Cut each roll-up in half diagonally and arrange on a platter.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
