Instructions

  1. Cut onion into slivers & slice peppers.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, juice of ½ lime, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, pepper, cumin and ½ teaspoon salt. Cut chicken into strips and toss with the spice mixture.
  3. Preheat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high. Add ½ of the chicken and cook until just cooked, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  4. Set chicken aside and add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan. Drain onions well (if soaking per note below) and cook 2 minutes. Add in sliced peppers and season with remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt. Toss and cook for an additional 2 minutes or just until hot. Add chicken back to the pan and stir to combine.
  5. Squeeze additional lime overtop and serve over tortillas.
