Chicken fajita seems to be quite the popular recipe on the internet. But all the recipes I found were... subpar in both taste and execution. Therefore, I created this incredibly delicious and simple chicken fajita recipe as part of your chicken meal prep efforts!
There are two secrets to this recipe.
First, the caramelized onions. It won't take much time to caramelize them - simply sauté and add water (that's a culinary trick for you), when the pan becomes dry to help the onions caramelize faster (try it! I promise it works!).
Next, mix the then caramelized onions with Trifecta bell peppers and cherry tomatoes as you reheat your marinated Trifecta chicken, and voila! You got a super delicious and simple fajita dinner done.
To make the spice rub, combine the following:
- ⅓ cup lime juice
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon oregano.
