Equipment

  • 2 Spatulas

Ingredients

Marinade

  • 1 chix bouillion cube
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil

Fajitas

  • 1 lbs. of chicken sliced in strips
  • 3 bell peppers sliced assorted colors
  • 1 white onion sliced
  • 1 packet of Fajita mix or use my marinade

Instructions

Marinade

  • Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Then add your sliced chicken and marinate for 1 to 6 hours.
  • This is enough marinade for 1 to 1.5 lbs of chicken.
  • Marinate the Chicken: If using my marinade, make it first and marinate the chicken for 1 to 6 hours. If using a fajita seasoning packet, you can add that later during cooking.

Fajitas

  • Preheat the Griddle: Heat your griddle to 375°F.
  • Warm the Tortillas: Place tortillas directly on the ungreased griddle and heat for 1 minute per side. Wrap them in a clean towel and place in a bowl to keep warm.
  • Cook the Veggies: Add a small amount of oil to the griddle and spread it around. Place sliced onions and bell peppers on the griddle. Toss every few minutes until softened and slightly charred.
  • Cook the Chicken: Place the marinated chicken on the griddle with space between each piece—do not crowd or pile. Cook for 4–5 minutes, then flip each piece individually to get a good sear on both sides.
  • Finish the Chicken: Cook until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Combine and Season: Add the cooked chicken to the veggies. Squirt with a bit of water to deglaze the griddle and pull up the seasoning.
  • Add Seasoning (if using packet): If you didn’t use my marinade, this is when you add the fajita seasoning packet. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
  • -Serve with warm tortillas, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
