Chicken and pepper fajitas

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
Fajitas were originally made from beef skirt steak on Texas ranches, but today they are synonymous with sizzling meats and vegetables served in a cast-iron skillet. The essence is 'flash frying': in a very hot pan, the vegetables and meat develop a crust in minutes while remaining juicy inside. This is one of the most social dishes of Tex-Mex cuisine, where everyone assembles their own bites.

Instructions

1 ✓

Cut the chicken and vegetables into strips of equal thickness. Toss the chicken with 1 spoonful of oil and half of the spice mix.

Tip: Uniform size ensures everything cooks at the same time.
2 ✓

Heat the pan until smoking hot. Add a little oil and flash-fry the chicken until golden brown (approx. 5 minutes). Remove from the pan.

Tip: If the pan isn't hot enough, the meat will release juices. You must hear the sizzle!
3 ✓

In the same pan, throw in the peppers and let them brown. When they have some colour (they can blacken slightly), sprinkle with the remaining spice and the chopped garlic. Fry until crisp-tender.

Tip: A 'crisp-tender' texture is the goal. Overcooked peppers lose their character.
4 ✓

Return the chicken to the vegetables, toss together, and drizzle with lime juice.

Tip: The acidity of the lime dissolves the delicious browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan (deglazing).
5 ✓

Warm the tortillas. Serve the meat ragout with cheese, diced tomatoes, and soured cream.

Tip: The fat in the soured cream cools the heat of the chilli.
