Provided by Gina

Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

16 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper (cut into strips)
1 green or poblano pepper (cut into strips)
1 medium onion (cut into strips)
3 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
pinch ancho or Mexican chili powder ( to taste)
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp olive oil
8 reduced-carb whole wheat flour tortillas (or corn tortillas for gf)
1/2 cup reduced fat shredded Mexican cheese
reduced fat sour cream (optional)
guacamole (optional)

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken with lime juice, and season with chile powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin.
  • Season vegetables with salt and pepper and toss with olive oil.
  • To grill the onions and peppers outside on the grill, use a cast iron skillet and grill covered over medium heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Or, to cook them indoors, you can use a large skillet on the stove over medium heat for 16 to 18 minutes, covered until the onions and peppers are soft.
  • Heat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium heat; grill chicken until cooked through, about 8 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer to a cutting board when done and cut into strips. Once cooked, combine with the peppers and onions.
  • Serve immediately with warmed tortillas, cheese and toppings.

HEALTHY FAJITA-STUFFED CHICKEN RECIPE BY TASTY



Healthy Fajita-Stuffed Chicken Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, green bell pepper, white onion, chicken breasts, oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin

Provided by Joey Firoben

Categories     Dinner

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ green bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ white onion, thinly sliced
2 chicken breasts
2 tablespoons oil, divided
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons cumin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a small bowl, mix together all of the fajita seasoning ingredients and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, ovenproof skillet. Toss in the bell peppers and onions and sprinkle on 2 teaspoons of the fajita seasoning. Sauté until the veggies have softened, about 6 minutes.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice into the side of a chicken breast to form a large pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  • Spoon in some of the fajita pepper mixture so that the breast is comfortably stuffed.
  • Season the chicken on both sides with fajita seasoning.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and brown the chicken, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, until the meat is cooked through.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Enjoy!
