Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb Chicken strips Boneless, skinless
  • 1 whole Red bell pepper Sliced
  • 1 whole Yellow bell pepper Sliced
  • 1 whole Green bell pepper Sliced
  • 1 large Onion Sliced
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil Divided
  • 1 tsp Smoky paprika
  • 1 whole Lime Cut into wedges
  • 0.25 cup Cilantro Freshly chopped
  • 8 whole Flour tortillas Warmed
  • 0.5 cup Guacamole For serving
  • 0.5 cup Salsa For serving

Instructions
 

  • Toss the chicken strips in a bowl with smoky paprika, a squeeze of juice from one lime wedge, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Add the sliced red, yellow, and green bell peppers along with the sliced onions to the skillet. Sauté until caramelized and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, then remove and set aside.
  • In the same hot skillet, grill the seasoned chicken strips until fully cooked and slightly charred on the outside, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Return the caramelized vegetables to the skillet with the chicken, tossing well to combine and heat through.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately directly from the skillet with warm flour tortillas, guacamole, salsa, and the remaining lime wedges.
