"When life hands you Fajitas, enjoy every sizzle."

I've been wanting to make this forever now, and I specifically wanted to serve it on my sizzler stand, which my mum got me for my birthday. I'm so glad I did because not only was it the wow factor for a random Monday lunch, but it tasted delicious. 

Now, I know I served this in a sizzler pan, but in no way do you need to use one for this recipe, unless you have a large one, you can just make this meal in it. I'm just extra when it comes to plating food for my family; also, I needed to take pictures.

This recipe is amazing; it's a great one-pot recipe with less mess, which means fewer clean-up items. It's quick to whip up, which you will see in the method. If you're in a rush, you can garnish your chicken fajitas the way I did in the same pot you cooked it in.

I served mine with tortillas, but I can see myself making this with rice or noodles. I also served it with my Pineapple and Mango Salsa (click here for the recipe), which hit the spot regarding the flavours, and it was perfect in this heat. 



Why Do I Share The Same Method Twice?

The first is with step-by-step pictures that are easy to follow, and right after, I share the same method again, just minus the pictures. 

Having a method with images provides some visual guidance for whoever may need it while making this recipe.

I will explain how to do it, so if you already know, skip to the next step. 

  1. To julienne your bell peppers, cut the head off the pepper. 
  2. Next, cut the inside around the white part connected to the pepper's sides. This will make it easy to remove the inside of the pepper with all the seeds. 
  3. Cut the bell pepper down the middle and into quarters.
  4. If some of the white part is still attached to the pepper, just slice it off. 
  5. Finally, lay each quarter down and cut into strips; it can be as thin or thick as you'd like.

3. Next, julienne the peppers, which is a fancy way of saying 'cut them into medium-sized strips'. If you don't know how to do it, check the section just above the ingredient list. I share a quick method with step-by-step pictures.

4. To a medium-sized pot, add the 2 Tbsp oil at a high temperature and let it heat up for a minute before adding in your marinated chicken strips.

5. Brown the chicken on one side for 2 - 3 minutes before flipping it over and browning the other side for another 2 - 3 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes.

7. Next, add in your peppers. You can add in your peppers with your chicken all at once, but adding them some minutes later ensures they are not too soft when you serve. Keep cooking on a medium to low temperature.
