Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 small onion (thinly sliced)

1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)

1 yellow or orange bell pepper (thinly sliced)

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts ((cut into small, bite-sized chunks))

½ teaspoon cumin

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 cup ranch dressing

Method

In a skillet pan, over medium-high heat, add the oil, sliced bell peppers and onions. Let cook, stirring occasionally, for about 6-8 minutes or until softened to your preference. * We like the peppers and onion softer so I always cover the pan with a lid during this cook time to help them soften quicker.

While the veggies are cooking chop the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces and place them into a mixing bowl. Add the cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, and kosher salt. Mix until all the chicken is well coated.* Make sure to wash your hands after handling raw meat.

Move peppers and onion to one half of the skillet. Add the chicken to the other half. Let cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring the chicken occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165℉. * You might want to stir the pepper mixture a few times to ensure it's not burning, or if you'd rather, you can remove the papers and onions from the skillet pan and just cook the meat in there. Some might choose to do this to prevent the peppers from over-cooking or getting too soft.

Stir everything together to combine. Pour the ranch dressing over top and combine everything together. Let cook for a few minutes just to combine the flavors together.

Use tongs, or a slotted spoon, to serve some chicken fajita mix inside flour tortillas and top with your favorite toppings. You can also drizzle some additional ranch dressing over top the fajitas.
