Chicken Fajitas (Picture Coming Soon)

Chicken Fajitas



12 ounces chicken breast, boneless/skinless raw
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons oregano, dried
 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper ground
 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
2 onions, yellow
2 bell peppers, green, medium
1 bell pepper, red, medium
3 tablespoons canola oil
12 small whole wheat tortillas
1 cup salsa
1 cup sour cream


Please note that this recipe requires 30 minutes of marinating time, which is not reflected in the prep time.Trim any visible fat from the chicken meat and cut it into 3/4-inch wide strips; place in a large bowl.Add the lime juice, sugar, oregano, cayenne and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly and set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes.Meanwhile, wash onions and peppers; peel onion, cut in half and slice thinly; slice bell peppers into 1/2-inch wide strips.Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.Add the chicken to the skillet and stir-fry for 5 to 6 minutes, then add the onions and peppers and cook for 3 to 4 more minutes more, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, but still juicy.Spoon the chicken mixture into a serving bowl and serve with warmed tortillas , salsa and sour cream
