Ingredients
- 1.5 .5 lbs chicken breasts or tenderloins, cut into strips
- 3 orange, red, or yellow bell peppers, cut into strips
- 1 red onion, cut into strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Chopped cilantro for garnish
- Corn or flour tortillas for serving
- toppings: sour cream, pico de gallo, lime wedges, and guacamole
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a very large rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper, or spray with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, add the chicken, bell peppers, and onion. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, seasonings, and garlic. Pour over chicken mixture and toss to coat. Note: You can also just mix everything on the pan to make it truly a one-pan meal.
- Layer mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is done and has reached 165 degrees F. Remove from oven and garnish with cilantro. Add more salt and lime juice to taste. Serve with your favorite toppings: sour cream, pico de gallo and guacamole in warm tortillas.
Notes
- WARMING TORTILLAS: You can wrap the tortillas in foil and throw it on the baking sheet for the last 5 minutes of cooking to easily warm them.
