Ingredients

Chicken-

  • 1 Pound Chicken Breast
  • 1 7oz can of Chipotle Peppers
  • 3 Cloves of Garlic
  • 1 Lime
  • ¼ Cup Loose Cilantro
  • ½ Tsp Salt
  • 1 Package of Flour Tortillas (6 Inch)
  • Sour Cream and Salsa if Desired

Veggies-

  • 4 Peppers Sliced
  • 1 Large Vidalia Onion (sweet) Sliced
  • 1 Jalapeño (if desired) Seeded and sliced
  • ¼ Cup Oil
  • 1 Tbsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 Tsp Chili Powder
  • 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • ½ Tsp Paprika
  • 1 Tsp Oregano

Method-

Zest the lime and juice it too. Separate and reserve. In a food processor, combine chipotle peppers, garlic, lime juice, cilantro and salt. Blend until smooth. Coat chicken with the marinade and lime zest. Refrigerate and hold for about 4 hours.

Combine seasonings for the veggies and set aside.

You can either grill, sauté or bake the chicken. Once cooked, slice into strips and hold hot. In a hot clean sauté pan, add veggies and oil. Season with spices and cook until tender (about 5 minutes)

With the tortilla open, spoon in the fillings and fold the tortilla. Add some salsa and sour cream ‘cause this one’s got some heat! Serves 6 two-inch fajitas each.
