Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts/Thighs Thighs are more forgiving if overcooked.
  • 2 tablespoons Avocado Oil Olive oil is a great substitute.
  • 2 tablespoons Lime Juice Freshly squeezed is best.
  • 2 teaspoons Chili Powder Consider smoked paprika for a twist.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust according to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Fresh minced garlic can elevate taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin Indispensable for earthy taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Tweak to personal preference.
For the Vegetables
  • 2 cups Bell Peppers Any color you like.
  • 1 cup Onions Yellow or red varieties work wonders.
For Serving
  • 4 pieces Tortillas Flour or corn options depending on preference.

Equipment

  • Blackstone griddle

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mason jar, combine avocado oil, lime juice, chili powder, salt, garlic powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Shake or blend until well combined. Marinate chicken in the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  2. Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high (about 400°F). A test for temperature is to sprinkle water on the surface—if it dances and evaporates quickly, you’re ready to cook!
  3. Add sliced onions and bell peppers to one side of the griddle. Sauté for 6-9 minutes until charred and tender.
  4. Move to the other side and cook marinated chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
  5. Warm tortillas directly on the griddle for about 1 minute to make them soft and pliable.
  6. Assemble the fajitas by layering chicken and sautéed vegetables in the warm tortillas. Customize with toppings like guacamole, sour cream, or salsa.
