Step-by-Step Instructions
1
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the chicken breast, lime juice, and fajita seasoning. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken, making sure it's evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drip off. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
3
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 5 minutes, or until they start to soften. Add the sliced bell peppers and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until they're tender and lightly charred.
4
Warm the flour tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds. Assemble the fajitas by slicing the cooked chicken into thin strips and serving it with the sautéed onions and bell peppers, warm tortillas, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.
