Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 10 fajitas

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lime (2" dia)s 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

Steps:

  • Whisk lime juice, olive oil, and fajita seasoning together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Cut peppers and chicken into strips and serve on tortillas.
