Slice the chicken breast into thin strips; mix with crushed garlic, cumin, ground red pepper, oregano, salt, black pepper, half the lime juice, and 1 tablespoon olive oil, then marinate for 15 minutes.
Cut the peppers and onion into long strips.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a wide pan over high heat; saute the chicken for 7 to 8 minutes, until sealed and lightly browned.
Add the peppers and onion and saute for 6 to 7 minutes over high heat, keeping the vegetables crisp; drizzle with the remaining lime juice.
Serve on a plate with warm tortillas, salsa, guacamole, and chopped cilantro, so everyone can wrap their own tortilla.
💡 Tip: Cook the chicken over high heat; use half the lime juice in the marinade and the rest after cooking for a clearer aroma.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with warm tortillas, salsa verde, guacamole, chopped cilantro, and garlic yogurt or sour cream.
