Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 1 lb chicken breast and 1 lb steak into thin strips. Toss with 2 tbsp fajita seasoning and 2 tbsp olive oil in a bowl until evenly coated.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and steak in a single layer; cook without stirring for 3-4 minutes until browned, then flip and cook another 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    In the same skillet, add the 3 sliced bell peppers and 1 sliced onion. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until charred and tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Return the meat to the skillet with the vegetables and toss to combine. Warm the 8 tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for 30 seconds.

  5. Step 5

    Serve the fajita mixture with the warm tortillas and your favorite toppings like salsa, sour cream, or lime wedges.
