Servings: 4
- 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 or corn tortillas
- Optional toppings: Salsa or pico de gallo sour cream or full fat greek yogurt, Guacamole or avocado, shredded cheese, and hot sauce
Preheat oven to 425°.
Add bell peppers, onion and chicken into a bowl. Toss with oil, garlic and spices.
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).
Top chicken mixture with fresh cilantro and drizzle on lime juice. Toss to combine.
Serve chicken and veggies in warm tortillas with toppings of choice. I recommend guacamole, salsa, cheese and hot sauce.
