Marinate the chicken
20 minToss the strip-cut chicken breast with olive oil, cumin, red pepper flakes, thyme, salt, and lemon juice, and let it rest for at least twenty minutes.
Chicken strips marinated with cumin, red pepper flakes, and thyme are quickly cooked over high heat with colorful peppers and onion. This vibrant Mexican cuisine dish is enjoyed wrapped in tortilla bread or alongside rice.
Toss the strip-cut chicken breast with olive oil, cumin, red pepper flakes, thyme, salt, and lemon juice, and let it rest for at least twenty minutes.
Cut the peppers and onion into thin strips.
Cook the marinated chicken in a well-heated wide pan, turning until golden brown.
Add the peppers and onion and sauté together over high heat for a short time so they stay crisp.
Important: if you don't let the chicken marinate for at least twenty minutes, the spices won't fully penetrate the meat. Note: if you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of browning; cook it in several batches.
If you serve the fajita with lemon-squeezed avocado slices and fresh coriander, you get a vibrant presentation like on Mexican tables. Warming the tortilla slightly before serving increases its flexibility.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenTereyağı yerine zeytinyağı kullandım, yine de güzel oldu. Süt yerine badem sütü ile denedim, gayet iyi sonuç verdi. Sarımsağı çıkardım, yine de lezzetli oldu.
İlk defa yaptığım halde hiç zorlanmadım, adımlar çok netti. Bu hafta sonu denedim, mutfak baştan sona güzel koktu.
Pişirirken evin her tarafı kokladı, komşular bile sordu. İkinci kez yapıyorum, ilkinden de güzel oldu.
