Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and set aside.

Step 2

Core and thinly slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers, and the red onion.

In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create the fajita seasoning.

Step 4

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Return the chicken to the skillet with the vegetables, and toss everything together. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture and stir to combine.
