Chicken Fajitas - Minus The Tortillas - W30

Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 2 red bell peppers, cut into thin strips
  • 2 medium red onions, sliced paper thin
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 zucchini, julienned
  • 3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lime
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Recipe

  • 1 cut the chicken into thin strips. if you have the meat slightly frozen, the slicing will be much easier.
  • 2 place the chicken and veggies in a large bowl. sprinkle the spices over all. juice the lime into the bowl and then drizzle with the olive oil.
  • 3 time to get your hands dirty! mix and mix and mix your veggie chicken glop until each and every piece is coated with the limey/oily/spice mixture. yummy. now go wash your gross raw-chicken hands.
  • 4 set aside for a few minutes. turn your griddle onto high heat - this is so the chicken and veggies will sear, not simmer or poach. it may splatter and sizzle - so beware! don't cook naked.
  • 5 unless you have a restaurant sized grill you'll have to cook your fajitas in 2 batches. that's ok. when dinner smells this good - they'll wait.
