Vejledning

Combine the marinade ingredients and place in sealed bag with the chicken. Place the bag in a bowl in case it leaks. Marinate in the fridge for at least 12 hours but preferably overnight.

The next day remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Heat a large cast iron pan to medium-high heat with 3 tablespoons of neutral oil. Once the oil is hot, add the peppers and onions and saute until moderately soft and charred. Add 1 tablespoon of the fajita spice and cook for 1 more minute. Remove the peppers and onions to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

Pat the chicken dry one more time and sprinkle the chicken pieces with 2 tablespoons of fajita seasoning.

Add more oil to the pan if needed and once it is very hot, add the chicken strips. Spread them out and leave undisturbed for 4 minutes. Flip the pieces and cook the other sides until well charred and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160°F. Move the chicken to one side of the pan and place the peppers and onions back on the other side. Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately. Enjoy!
