Chicken Fajitas
60 min · 4 servings
Ingredients
□ 1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, sliced 1/2 inch thick
□ 3 tbsp neutral oil, divided
□ 2 limes for lime zest and lime juice
□ 3 garlic cloves, finely grated
□ 2 tsp ground cumin
□ 1 tsp chili powder
□ 1 tsp kosher salt, divided
□ 1 red bell pepper
□ 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
□ 1 large yellow onion, sliced
□
□ 1 cup diced tomato
□ 1/4 cup diced white onion
□ 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
□ 3/4 cup sour cream
□ 1 jalapeno (optional)
□ lime wedges
Directions
1. Marinate chicken 15 minutes. Mix pico and stir the lime-jalapeno sour cream.
2. Heat a heavy skillet very hot; brown chicken in two batches and transfer to a plate.
3. Char peppers and onion in the empty skillet. Return chicken, toss briefly, and finish with lime.
4. Warm tortillas, fill with fajita mixture, pico, and lime cream; serve hot with wedges.
Cook’s note: Keep batches loose in a fully heated skillet so the chicken and vegetables brown instead of steam.
