  1. 5. Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

  1. 6. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper and onion mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly charred.

  1. 7. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.

  1. 8. Serve the chicken fajitas with warm tortillas and your choice of toppings such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, and chopped cilantro.

  1. 9. Enjoy your delicious chicken fajitas!
