Preparation

  1. Serving size:
    7 oz (calculated)
    1 cup (by recipe creator)
    Notes: sufficient as a filling for one large or two smaller tortillas

    Marinading the meat

  1. Cut the chicken breast into strips.
  2. Marinade it in the oil, chopped cilantro and spices.
  3. Optionally marinade the chicken in the fridge for a couple of hours. This will make the meat extra tender.
  4. Cooking the vegetables

  5. While the meat is marinating, chop the bell peppers and slice the spring onions.
  6. In a large pan over medium heat, add the oil.
  7. Cook the bell peppers in the oil for about 5 minutes or until the bell peppers start to brown.
  8. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  9. Cooking the meat

  10. In the same pan, cook the chicken until it is cooked through.
  11. Add the bell peppers and half the spring onions and heat until sizzling.
  12. Season to taste. If you like it spicy, add cayenne pepper and chili to taste.
  13. Serve sprinkled with the remaining spring onions.
  14. You can enjoy the dish as is, but we recommend a side of guacamole, sour cream and grated cheese. Or even better, use it as a filling in some tortillas.
  15. Meal Prep Tip

  16. You can store the dish in an airtight container for 3 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. For best results, thaw overnight. Reheat in the microwave or in the oven.
