Instructions

Preparation Steps

In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken strips in a bowl and toss with half of the spice mixture, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and the lime juice. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sprinkle with the remaining spice mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables and toss to combine. Cook for 1 more minute until heated through.
Serve immediately with warm flour tortillas and your favorite toppings.
