Garlic Lime Chicken Fajitas
I ended October with a bang last night, I made Garlic Lime Chicken Fajitas. I feel like I am slowly taking on my Dad's cooking talents with age because WOW they were good. I would like to share the recipe with everyone.
Prep time: 15 min

1 tsp. Minced Onions
3/4 tsp. Ground Cumin
3/4 tsp. Oregano Leaves
1/2 tsp. Cilantro Leaves

You will also need:
1/4 Cup each lime and orange juices
2 tbsp. Olive Oil

1 1/2 lbs. Boneless Chicken Breasts, cut into thin strips
1 medium green and red Bell Pepper, cut into thin strips
1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
8 Flour Tortillas (the 8-inch ones)
