3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon plus 5 tsp. olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp.)
2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1
In a medium bowl, combine lime juice, cilantro, 1 Tbsp. oil, soy sauce, 1 tsp. garlic, brown sugar, cumin and chili powder. Add chicken; stir well. Let stand for 15 minutes.
2
In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 1/2 tsp. oil over medium-high heat until very hot; swirl to coat skillet. Spread half of chicken in a single layer, reserving marinade. Cook, undisturbed, for 2 minutes, then stir-fry for 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Add another 1 1/2 tsp. oil; repeat with remaining chicken.

Add remaining 2 tsp. oil, peppers and onion to skillet. Stir-fry until vegetables are slightly charred and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. garlic; stir-fry for 30 seconds. Season with salt.
