The BEST Chicken Fajitas
Serves 4-5
INGREDIENTS:
1lb chicken breasts, sliced into cutlet, then into thin strips
2 bell peppers, any color, thinly sliced
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
8oz mushrooms, thinly sliced
6 Tablespoons high-heat cooking oil (vegetable oil, canola oil, etc.), divided
1 lemon, cut in half
homemade seasoned salt (see notes)
cumin
smoked paprika
Toppings: sour cream, shredded lettuce, pico de gallo
DIRECTIONS:
1. Season the chicken strips with seasoned salt and a pinch of both cumin and smoked paprika then mix to coat and set aside. Add the vegetables to a large bowl then toss with your hands to mix.
2. Heat 1-1/2 Tablespoons oil in a large, 12"+ heavy-bottomed skillet - preferably cast iron - over high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, add 1/3 of the vegetables in an even layer in the bottom. Season with seasoned salt, a pinch of cumin, and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice (~1/2 - 1 teaspoon - not too much!) then let the vegetables sit undisturbed until seared on the bottom. Toss with tongs then continue to saute, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes, turning the heat down slightly if they begin to burn. Remove the vegetables to a plate. Repeat the process of heating 1-1/2 Tablespoons oil then searing and seasoning the vegetables with seasoned salt, cumin, and lemon juice in two more batches.
3. Heat the remaining 1-1/2 Tablespoons oil in the skillet then add the chicken, drizzle over a little lemon juice, and then saute until the chicken is cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Add the seared vegetables back into the skillet then toss to heat everything through. Serve immediately.
