Ingredients

  • 3 tri-color bell peppers seeded and sliced
  • 1 medium yellow or red onion sliced
  • 1 ¼ lb. boneless chicken breasts sliced into small strips
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • Juice from one lime about 2 Tablespoons
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro plus more for topping if desired
  • 8 flour tortillas see note for my brand suggestion
  • Optional toppings: Salsa or pico de gallo sour cream or full fat greek yogurt, Guacamole or avocado, shredded cheese, and hot sauce

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Add bell peppers, onion and chicken into a bowl. Toss with oil, garlic and spices.
  3. Spread onto a large baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, tossing at the 10-minute mark. You can bump the heat to broil for the last 2-3 minutes to get a little char on everything if desired. I did 18 minutes total – baked for 15 minutes and then 3 minutes on a high broil (500°F).
  4. Top chicken mixture with fresh cilantro and drizzle on lime juice. Toss to combine.
  5. Serve chicken and veggies in warm tortillas with toppings of choice. I recommend guacamole, salsa, cheese and hot sauce.

Notes

  • Maria and Ricardo's whole wheat plus tortillas
  • Flour tortillas - I've been really liking Maria and Ricardo's whole wheat plus tortillas and that's what I used for the nutrition facts on this recipe. They're 45 calories and 3 grams of protein each.
