This dish is a wonder in my home. Every time I make it, roommates come out of the woodwork and I get my way around the house for the day! Great for those who love spicy food! Very zesty
Ingredients
- 2lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast (cut into cubes or strips) shopping list
- 2 medium white onions shopping list
- 2 large green bell peppers shopping list
- fresh or canned mushrooms shopping list
- 2 tbsp vegetable or olive oil shopping list
- 2 tsp ground cumin or whole cumin seed shopping list
- 1 1/2 tsp crushed dried oregano shopping list
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes shopping list
- 1 tsp garlic salt shopping list
- 1/2 tsp black pepper shopping list
- 1-2 limes and squeeze for the juice (fresh) or 4tbsp lime juice shopping list
- (all items are up to your discretion, use more or less, depending on your tastes, I like a lot of sauteed veggies in mine!) shopping list
- tortilla shells of your choice shopping list
- Extras: (for garnishment) shopping list
- Queso cheese or grated cheese of your choice shopping list
- salsa shopping list
- Spanish rice shopping list
- lettuce shopping list

How to make it
- Combine spices (except lime juice) and set aside
- Slice onions, peppers, and mushrooms into strips or chunks (depending on preference) and saute in the oil on a medium-high heat until they begin to caramelize
- Add cubes/strips of chicken and lime juice to mixture and sear chicken (be sure to flip it constantly, you don't want it to burn and you still want it tender, not rubbery)
- after the chicken is done, take your spices and sprinkle all over veggie/chicken mixture- stir well to evenly coat the dish
- Remove from heat
- build your fajitas the way you want! I included things we garnish ours with for ideas
