Sizzling Chicken Fajitas
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 1/2 teaspoon crushed red hot pepper flakes
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast (4 ounces each)
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 8 large flour tortillas, warmed
- 1 large tomato, seeded, chopped
- 3/4 cup salsa

Instructions
Combine lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, cumin, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Reserve 1/3 of the marinade. Add chicken to bowl; turn to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for 10 minutes. Preheat grill or broiler. Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and half of the reserved marinade. Stir-fry for 3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Grill or broil chicken, turning and basting with reserved marinade, about 7 minutes per side. Cut into thin strips. Add chicken to skillet and stir with vegetables. Fill tortillas with chicken mixture. Top with tomato and salsa; roll to enclose filling. Arrange fajitas seam-sizes down on a serving platter. Top with sour cream, lettuce and Cheddar.
