Easy chicken fajitas
Ingredients
Seasoning mix:
* 1 teaspoon sea salt
* ¼ teaspoon black pepper
* 2 tablespoons chili powder
* 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* ½ teaspoon dried oregano
* ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Fajitas:
* 3 medium bell peppers cut into thin strips
* 1 medium onion thinly sliced
* 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast cut into strips
* 2 tablespoons avocado oil
Instructions
* In a small bowl, combine the seasoning ingredients: sea salt, black pepper, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. You can divide each of the spices in half and mix them in two different bowls. Half will season the veggies, and half will season the chicken.
* Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers, onions, and half the seasoning mix. Cook, stirring often, until just tender, about 5 minutes. If the bottom of the skillet becomes too dry, add a little water, a tablespoon at a time. You can also reduce the heat to medium.
* Using a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables onto a plate. Add the remaining oil to the skillet, then add the chicken slices with the second half of the seasonings. Stir-fry until the chicken is almost fully cooked, about 4 minutes. Again, if the bottom of the skillet becomes too dry while you cook the chicken, add a little water.
* Return the vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry everything together for 1-2 more minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the dish is heated through.
