Juicy chicken breast grilled on a Blackstone flat top with sweet bell peppers and onions, seasoned with a simple spice blend and fresh lime juice for a smoky, flavorful fajita experience.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (smoked paprika optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A handful fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 8 small flour or corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. Slice chicken breast into thin strips about 1/4-inch thick. Thinly slice onion and bell peppers. Mince garlic and juice lime; set aside.
  2. In a bowl, toss chicken strips with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let rest while heating grill.
  3. Preheat Blackstone grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Wait until hot enough that water sizzles and evaporates immediately.
  4. Spread marinated chicken evenly on the grill. Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to develop crust, then flip and stir occasionally for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
  5. Push chicken to one side of grill. Add more oil if needed, then add sliced peppers and onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally, cooking 5-6 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
  6. Mix chicken with peppers and onions on grill for 1-2 minutes to combine flavors. Remove from heat and squeeze fresh lime juice over top. Toss in chopped cilantro.
  7. Warm tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.
  8. Serve chicken fajita mix with warm tortillas and optional toppings like sour cream, guacamole, or salsa.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the grill to avoid steaming the chicken; cook in batches if necessary. For gluten-free, use corn tortillas or lettuce wraps. Fresh lime juice is preferred over vinegar for best flavor. Season grill regularly and clean after use for best results.
