The aroma of the lime is so good, and when you cook it it fills the kitchen and people come-a-running. I accompany this with southwest-style rice.

Ingredients

  • 0.25 cups orange juice
  • 0.25 cups lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
  • 0.75 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoons dried cilantro leaves
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1.5 pounds boneless chicken breasts , cut into thin strips
  • 1 green bell pepper , cut into thin strips
  • 1 onion , thinly sliced
  • 8 flours tortillas , 8 inch

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, dried onion, oregano, cilantro, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Measure out 1/4 cup of the marinade and set aside. Pour remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag, place chicken in the bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess; discard remaining marinade.

  3. 3

    Cook and stir chicken in a large skillet over medium-high heat until lightly browned and cooked through, 3 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Cook and stir pepper and onion in the same skillet with reserved 1/4 cup of marinade until vegetables are tender and liquid is reduced, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to skillet; cook and stir until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Spoon chicken mixture into tortillas.
