Introduction

Wrap this chicken in tortillas with whatever extra fillings you enjoy. Delicious! (And much better than that fajita seasoning you buy in packets!)

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts, sliced or diced

1 tsp olive oil

1 small onion, cut into strips

1 green pepper, cut into strips

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

juice of half a lemon

0.25 tsp salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp chili powder (or more to taste)

0.5 tbsp ground ginger

0.5 tbsp ground cumin

1 tsp oregano (dried/ground)

1 tsp coriander leaf (dried/ground)

Directions

Fry sliced onions in oil until golden.

Add diced chicken, lemon juice, garlic and all seasoning, mix well and cook for two minutes.

Add the green pepper strips, mix well, and cook for a further 5 mins approx, until chicken is cooked through.

Makes enough for six fajitas (I normally have two for a meal).

Serve with tortillas, salsa or chopped tomato, guacamole or chopped avocado, refried beans... even some grated cheese or sour cream depending on your diet... Basically, dress it up or down as much as you like!
