TOTAL TIME
1
In a small bowl, mix together sea salt, black pepper, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes to create the seasoning.
2
Divide the seasoning mix into two equal portions.
3
Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.
4
Add the thinly sliced bell peppers, onions, and half the seasoning mix to the skillet.
5
Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are just tender but still retain their color, about 5 minutes. Add water a tablespoon at a time if needed to prevent burning.
6
Using a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables to a plate and set aside.
7
Add the remaining tablespoon of avocado oil to the skillet, followed by the thinly sliced chicken breast and the second half of the seasoning mix.
8
Stir-fry the chicken until almost fully cooked, about 4 minutes. Add water a tablespoon at a time if needed to prevent sticking.
9
Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry everything together for 1-2 more minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the dish is heated through.
10
Serve the chicken fajitas in bowls, drizzled with the pan juices, or wrap them in warm tortillas or lettuce cups. Top with your choice of salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or shredded cheddar, if desired.
