Ingredients
-
FOR THE FAJITAS
- 3 chicken breasts, cut into strips
- Juice of 2 limes (and a little bit of the pulp too)
- 2 tbsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp cayenne chilli powder
- 1 tsp paprika or smoked paprika
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 bell peppers (red or green), chopped
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1 large iceberg lettuce, leaves separated
- Celtic Sea or Himalayan Pink salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
FOR THE GUACAMOLE
- 2 avocados
- Celtic Sea or Himalayan Pink salt
-
FOR THE SALSA
- 1 large handful cherry tomatoes
- 5 spring onions, finely chopped
- 1 small handful fresh coriander, finely chopped
- 1 tsp olive oil
Method
- Place the lime juice, oregano, cayenne chilli, paprika, cinnamon and some salt and pepper in a bowl and mix well. Now add the chicken strips and mix until the chicken is fully covered. (Feel free to leave this to marinate for about 30 minutes to maximise the flavour.)
- Heat the coconut oil in a pan and add the chicken.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes before adding the onions and bell peppers and stirring well. Cook until the chicken
is cooked through and the onions and peppers have softened. While this is cooking through you can prepare
the guacamole and salsa. - For the guacamole, simply mash the avocados in a bowl with the salt. Easy!
- For the salsa simply mix the tomatoes, spring onions, fresh coriander and olive oil together in a bowl.
- Hold the lettuce leaf in your hand, spoon in a portion of the chicken, top with the guacamole and then the salsa. Then fold the leaf around the filling and sink your teeth in.
