1. Prepare the marinade, in a zip-closed plastic bag, combine the lime juice, soy sauce, chili powder, and red pepper; add the chicken. Seal the bag, squeezing out the air; turn to coat chicken. Refrigerate, turning bag occasionally, at least 2 hours or overnight. Drain and discard marinade.
2. In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tsp. of the oil (if you want). Saute the bell peppers and onion until softened, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
3. In the skillet, heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil (if you want you can grill the chicken instead, it tastes just as good if not better). Saute chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes.

Turned out great! Just the right amount of spice. If you like it hotter just use hot salsa in your serving. Juicy, tasty, easy! Better than a Mexican restaurant. Will definitely make this recipe again and again. Minutes to prepare the marinade for the chicken and the cooking took mere minutes also. - 6/20/15
