These One-Skillet Spicy Chicken Fajitas are the build-your-own dinner answer for picky eaters everywhere. Seriously. The debate will be not whether but rather how many. Paleo, no sugar added, and low-carb with a soy-free homemade seasoning.
Ingredients
- 1 clove Garlic, Pressed
- ¼ cups Onion Flakes
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- ⅛ teaspoons Celery Seed
- ⅛ teaspoons Sea Salt
- 1 package (3 Oz. Size) Pre-cooked Chicken Breast Strips
- ¼ cups Water, Up To Double The Amount As Needed
- ½ cups Grape Or Cherry Tomatoes, Halved
- ¼ cups Green Onions, Sliced
- ¼ cups Red Onion, Diced
- ¼ cups Cilantro, Minced
- Black Pepper, As Desired
Preparation
In a skillet, add garlic, onion flakes, onion powder, celery seed, sea salt, chicken breast strips, and water. Sauté for 15–20 minutes over medium to high heat. The water will absorb the seasonings and will then adhere to the chicken for an even-coated flavor. If all of a sudden it starts to dry (I’ve had this happen a few times), just stir in a few tablespoons of water and remove from the heat.
Scoop chicken onto lettuce leaves and top with tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and pepper. Serve immediately.
Note: If you want to have more control over the spiciness, combine seasonings in a small glass dish and gradually pour on top of the chicken as it sautés, tasting until you have the desired flavor. Additionally, you can sauté your desired toppings for the last few minutes of cooking.
