Slice the chicken into thin strips, then toss it with the fajita seasoning, salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–6 minutes, turning often, until lightly browned and cooked through.
Add the sliced onion and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 6–8 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still have some bite.
Stir in the lime juice and cook for 1 minute, scraping up any seasoned juices from the pan.
Warm the tortillas, then fill them with the chicken and vegetables. Serve with sour cream and grated Mexican-style cheese.
Notes
Warm the tortillas while the filling cooks so everything reaches the table together.
About this recipe
These easy chicken fajitas keep everything in one pan, so the chicken stays juicy while the peppers and onions soften around it. Fajita seasoning, lime and warm tortillas bring the dish together without a long ingredient list.
Serve straight from the pan with sour cream and grated Mexican-style cheese. It is a quick, flexible supper that works well for sharing.
