Steps:
- Whisk lime juice, olive oil, and fajita seasoning together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Cut bell peppers in half and discard the inner membranes and seeds.
- Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Place chicken and peppers (cut-sides down) on the preheated grill. Cook, turning occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, and peppers have nice grill marks on them, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Cut peppers and chicken into strips and serve on tortillas.

Steps:
- Whisk the lime, oil, garlic, salt and pepper until combined in a small bowl. Place the chicken in a 1-gallon plastic bag. Pour half of the lime mixture over the chicken; turn to coat. Let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours.
- Arrange the scallions, onions, green peppers and red peppers on a large rimmed baking sheet. Pour the remaining lime mixture over the vegetables; turn to coat.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the lime mixture and bring to room temperature. Sprinkle each side of the chicken with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 7 minutes each side. Grill the vegetables until tender, turning frequently, about 10 minutes for the scallions and peppers and 15 minutes for the onions.
- Transfer the chicken to a work surface and cover with aluminum foil. Set aside the chicken for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the onions and peppers and arrange them on a platter with the scallions. Slice the chicken crosswise into strips and transfer to the platter. Serve with the Cheddar and sour cream.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- Place a grill basket on a baking sheet. Mix together the cumin, oregano, smoked paprika, cayenne and 2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl. Add the steak to a large bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle a third of the spice blend on the steak and toss until coated. Transfer the steak to one side of the grill basket. Repeat the process first with the peppers and onion, placing them in the middle of the grill basket, and then with the chicken, arranging it on the remaining empty side of the grill basket; try to keep the rows mostly separate (they can overlap slightly). Close and secure the grill basket.
- Put the grill basket on the grill and let cook, flipping once, until everything starts to brown and caramelize, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken registers 165 degrees F, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Remove from the grill, place on a clean baking sheet and open the basket, letting it rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the tortillas until they start to char slightly, about 30 seconds per side.
- Divide the meats and vegetables among the tortillas. Serve with desired toppings.
EASY CHICKEN FAJITA MARINADE
This is a simple fajita marinade that has been bounced around in my family for at least 15 years. It's simple, tasty, easily altered for a twist on the taste, and can be easily prepared in under 15 minutes. Serve with other fajita elements and enjoy! Some ideas: sauteed green bell pepper with white or yellow onions, jalapeno slaw, homemade salsa (tomato or mango), etc.
