Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 4 pieces Low-carb tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 large Avocado
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Slice them into thin strips and place in a large bowl.
Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the chicken. Toss to coat well and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, slice the red and green bell peppers and yellow onion into thin strips.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated chicken strips to the pan and cook for about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the sliced peppers and onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes or until they are soft and slightly charred.
Return the chicken to the pan with the peppers and onions. Toss everything together to warm through for about 2 minutes.
Warm the low-carb tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until just soft and pliable.
To serve, divide the chicken and vegetable mixture among the low-carb tortillas. Top with fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, and slices of avocado.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your Keto Grilled Chicken Fajitas!
