HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN FAJITAS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’ll start by making fajita seasoning,<\/a> I highly recommend my homemade recipe, but store bought works well too. Here are the steps to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Season the chicken.<\/strong>\u00a0Generously brush the fajita seasoned oil on both sides of the chicken and coat well, make sure you get into all the crevices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Sear the chicken.<\/strong>\u00a0Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 7-8 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the pieces. Once cooked, transfer and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Saute the bell peppers, poblano and onion.<\/strong>\u00a0Reheat the skillet or frying pan and saute the bell peppers, poblano and onions until slightly charred and caramelized. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Combine.<\/strong>\u00a0Add the chicken strips back to the skillet, squeeze fresh lime and stir everything together.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. \u00a0Serve<\/strong> with warmed tortillas and favorite toppings.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
