Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs Chicken breast
  • 2 medium Bell peppers (mixed colors)
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 2 tbsp Fajita seasoning
  • 4 cups Cooked rice
  • 0.5 cup Dairy-free sour cream alternative
  • 1 cup Salsa
  • 1 medium Avocado
  • 4 serving Lime wedges

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare your ingredients: Slice the 1.5 lbs of chicken breast into 1/2-inch thick strips. Cut the 2 medium bell peppers (mixed colors) into 1/2-inch wide strips. Peel and slice the 1 medium onion into 1/2-inch wide strips.
  2. 2Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat (400°F / 200°C). Add the sliced chicken breast to the hot skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned on all sides and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  3. 3Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Continue to cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. 4Stir in the 2 tbsp of fajita seasoning, ensuring it coats the chicken and vegetables evenly. Cook for 1 more minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  5. 5While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, prepare your serving bowls. Divide the 4 cups of cooked rice among four bowls.
  6. 6Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture from the skillet over the rice in each bowl.
  7. 7Garnish each bowl with a dollop of the 0.5 cup dairy-free sour cream alternative, a spoonful of the 1 cup salsa, slices from the 1 medium avocado, and serve with 4 serving lime wedges on the side.
