Let's Get Started

- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Cook until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5 minutes.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss with the peppers and onion to combine.
- Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or in the oven.
- Serve the chicken fajita mixture on warm tortillas and top with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and chopped cilantro.
- Fold the tortillas and enjoy!
