Grilled Chicken Fajita Skillet
Ingredients
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 large yellow bell peppers
  • 2 large red bell peppers
  • 10 (6 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
Instructions
1
Combine lime juice, olive oil, and fajita seasoning in a bowl to create a marinade. Pour the mixture into a resealable plastic bag and add chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated. Remove any excess air from the bag and seal it tightly.
2
Place the marinade-coated chicken in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
3
Preheat an outdoor grill over medium heat and lightly brush the grill grates with oil. This will prevent sticking and ensure a smooth cooking process.
4
Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise, discarding the seeds and inner membranes. Remove the chicken from its marinade and gently shake off any excess.
5
Place the chicken and peppers on the preheated grill, with the peppers cut-side down. Cook for 15 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). The chicken should be no longer pink in the center, and the juices should run clear.
6
Once cooked, remove the chicken and peppers from the grill. Cut them into strips and serve on tortillas.
