Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine 2 Tbsp oil, 2 Tbsp lime juice and all the seasonings: chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir well.
2. Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise, add to the marinade and turn to coat evenly. Marinate up to 4 hours while you prep the vegetables.
3. Slice the bell peppers and onions into thin 1/4-inch slices, cutting against the grain.
4. Heat a large heavy skillet over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp oil. Sear the chicken in a single layer 3-5 minutes per side until browned and it reaches 165°F in the center on an instant-read thermometer. Cook in batches if needed. Transfer to a cutting board and rest.
5. In the same skillet over medium heat, add 1 Tbsp oil, then the onion and peppers. Sauté 5-6 minutes, stirring often, until softened and browned in spots. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Meanwhile, slice the chicken into strips against the grain. Return the chicken to the pan once the vegetables are done, stir to combine and remove from heat.
7. Serve over warmed tortillas with a squeeze of lime juice and your toppings.
