Chicken Fajitas
(serves 4, unless you are really hungry!)

Ingredients
4 boneless chicken breasts, sliced in thin strips
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons salad oil,
plus 2 tablespoons of oil for cooking
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 green pepper, sliced in thin strips
1 onion, sliced in thin strips

Directions
In a bowl add lemon juice, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, and cayenne pepper and stir until combined. Add chicken strips, green peppers and onion and coat evenly with marinade. Marinate for 1 hour.

In a hot large skillet or cast iron fajita pan, add 2 tablespoons of oil and add chicken, peppers and onions. Cook until the juices of the chicken run clear, about 15 minutes. Stir the fajitas often so that they do not stick to the pan and burn.

Serve with warm flour tortillas and your favorite accompaniments. I suggest sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, and Pico de Gallo (salsa).

* If you would prefer to grill the chicken, do not cut it into strips. Grill for 15 minutes or until juices run clear.
