4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (Cut into 1/2 inch strips)
1 yellow bell pepper (Cut into thin strips)
1 green bell pepper (Cut into thin strips)
1 red onion (Slice into thin strips)
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
⅛ teaspoon Tabasco sauce (optional)
¾ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 lime, juice and zest of (zest the peel and then juice the lime- add both to the marinade)
flour tortilla

1
Combine the marinade ingredients into a large mixing bowl and combine well.
2
Add the chicken and the vegetables.
3
Let this marinate at least 15 minutes, but no more than an hour so the mix doesn't get mushy.
4
Heat a large flat griddle or a large frying pan to high heat.
5
Cook the mix in several batches so that the mixture is not crowded in the pan- it will brown much easier and taste better that way.
6
It takes about 6-8 minutes each batch to get them noce and browned.
7
Turn the mixture occasionally as it cooks to get the browning even.
8
Add the mixture back onto a clean bowl as you cook the rest- cover the bowl with a large plate so the vegetables will continue to steam and get soft.
9
Heat the tortillas as you normally do- we throw ours on the grill before we start to warm them.
10
We then keep them in a covered bowl where they are easy to pull out to serve!
11
We usually serve these family style- with the bowl of fajitas in the center of the table and everyone builds their own!
