Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 17

Juice and zest of 2 limes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips
3 bell peppers (red, yellow or orange), stemmed, seeded and very thinly sliced
1 large white onion, halved and thinly sliced
Eight 6- to 8-inch flour tortillas, warmed if possible 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Sour cream, optional
Hot sauce, optional

Steps:

  • Combine the lime juice and zest, garlic, sugar, oregano, cinnamon, cumin, salt, pepper cayenne, paprika and 2 tablespoons oil in a large bowl. Add the chicken to the marinade and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and add to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the chicken starts to brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the bell peppers and onion and cook for until the vegetables are tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Divide the chicken, peppers and onion equally among the eight tortillas. Garnish with the cilantro, sour cream and hot sauce, if using.
