Gold Medal Sizzling Fajitas Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 bell peppers (red, green, or yellow), sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Tortillas, salsa, cheese, and other toppings of your choice
Instructions:
1. Begin by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and allow it to heat until hot.
2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Add them to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
4. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables and mix well. Season the chicken mixture with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is heated through and the spices are fragrant.
5. Serve the sizzling fajitas in warm tortillas, topped with your choice of toppings such as salsa, cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
