Honey Lime Chicken Fajitas

 I rarely go to Mexican restaurants anymore, because it is so easy to make delicious Mexican food at home. This recipe takes ordinary chicken fajitas over the top. The combination of the sweet honey with the zippy lime juice and authentic seasoning brings so much flavor to this chicken, which is made to be wrapped up in warm tortillas with sauteed onions and peppers. Don't forget the salsa!

Honey Lime Chicken Fajitas
A sweet and zesty marinade coats tender chicken.
Serves 4

1/2 cup lime juice, from about 4 limes

1/3 cup honey
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. cayenne
Salt & Pepper
1 T canola oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Flour tortillas, cheddar cheese, sauteed onions, and sauteed peppers, for serving

Combine lime juice, honey, garlic and cayenne in a large bowl. Sprinkle in salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts and toss to coat. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Pre-heat oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breast and cook on each side until done, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from pan and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice in strips. Serve with warm flour tortillas, cheddar cheese, sauteed onions, and sauteed peppers.
