Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the fajita seasoning. Remove about 2 teaspoons of the seasoning mixture and set aside in a pinch bowl.
- Add the olive oil and lime juice on top of the fajita seasoning in the large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the chicken to the marinade and let it sit for about 10 minutes.
- When ready to cook the chicken, heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off the excess, and place in the preheated pan (keep the marinade). Cook the chicken for 10 minutes until almost cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a large platter, tented to keep warm.
- Add the onions and remaining 2 teaspoons seasoning to the same pan and cook for 2 minutes. Add the sliced bell peppers and cook with the onions until they slightly soften, about 2 more minutes. Transfer the vegetables next to the chicken on the platter.
- Warm the flour tortillas and serve the fajitas with the tortillas, lime wedges, fresh cilantro and avocado.
