Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

Marinade:

¼ cup olive oil

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1 tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons ground cumin

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts

Vegetables:

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large onion, sliced

1 large red bell pepper, sliced

1 large green bell pepper, sliced

Directions

Make marinade: Combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add chicken and toss until well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate, 4 hours to overnight.

Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the hot skillet, reserving marinade. Cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 6 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from the skillet, slice, and set aside.

Cook vegetables: Heat olive oil in the same skillet. Add onion, bell peppers, and reserved marinade. Cook and stir until vegetables are soft and tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Add chicken back to the skillet; cook and stir until warmed through, 2 to 4 minutes.
