Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby bell peppers
  • 1 onion
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil divided
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 lime
  • 16 flour tortillas soft taco sized
  • shredded cheese, sour cream, salsa, guacamole for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Trim the top off of peppers, cut in half and remove seeds. Cut onion into thin slices. Cut the chicken into strips, about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Combine chili powder, salt and black pepper in a small bowl. In a medium bowl combine chicken and half chili powder mixture and 1 tablespoon canola oil; toss to coat.
  • Put the peppers and onions on a rimmed sheet pan, sprinkle with remaining chili powder mixture and drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil; toss to coat veggies. Broil for 10 minutes or until veggies soften and begin to char.

Notes

How to warm tortillas: wrap in aluminum foil and place in the oven with the vegetables, leave in to cook while the fajitas cook. Carefully remove from the oven.
