Directions:Combine lemon and lime juices, garlic, salt and pepper, cilantro, oregano and cumin in a large dish or 1 gallon zip-lock bag. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade. Let sit in the refrigerator for several hours, or overnight. When ready to cook, heat a skillet. Add a small amount of oil to the skillet. With a slatted spoon, remove the chicken to the skillet. Once chicken has started to cook, add onions and peppers to the skillet. Pour the remaining marinade into the skillet, adding additional lime juice or spices as needed. Cooked until the marinade boils, and until the peppers are to a desired tenderness. Scoop the mixture into a heated tortilla wrap, add salsa and sour cream. Enjoy! |

Notes: This recipe is one of my favorites, especially in the summer when there are so many peppers available. The fresh cilantro is a great twist on the traditional fajitas recipes.
