How to Make Taco Bell Chicken Fajitas

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together: 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
  3. Add the spice mix to the skillet along with 1/4 cup water, 1 green bell pepper (sliced), and 1/2 medium onion (sliced).
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Cook and stir for another 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Stir in 1 1/2 cups cooked rice.
  6. While the chicken cooks, warm tortillas. You can microwave them for 1 minute, wrapped in a damp paper towel, or warm them in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for best results.
  7. Spoon the chicken and rice mixture onto each warm tortilla.
  8. Roll up the tortillas and serve immediately. Garnish with your favorite toppings like shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.
