Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

16 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper (cut into strips)
1 green or poblano pepper (cut into strips)
1 medium onion (cut into strips)
3 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
pinch ancho or Mexican chili powder (  to taste)
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp olive oil
8 reduced-carb whole wheat flour tortillas (or corn tortillas for gf)

guacamole (optional)

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken with lime juice, and season with chile powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin.
  • Season vegetables with salt and pepper and toss with olive oil.
  • To grill the onions and peppers outside on the grill, use a cast iron skillet and grill covered over medium heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Or, to cook them indoors, you can use a large skillet on the stove over medium heat for 16 to 18 minutes, covered until the onions and peppers are soft.
  • Heat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium heat; grill chicken until cooked through, about 8 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer to a cutting board when done and cut into strips. Once cooked, combine with the peppers and onions.
  • Serve immediately with warmed tortillas, cheese and toppings.
