Well señoritas, aquí está....Spicy-Lime Chicken Fajitas. Impress your guests or family with this doozie!
For marinade, combine the lime juice, sugar, oregano, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. I know that combination may sound strange to some ears (as it did to mine), but trust me on this one. Let chicken marinade for 30 minutes.
Chop up peppers and onion into 1/4 inch slices and fry over medium heat.
When chicken has set in marinade for 30 minutes, cook in frying pan over medium/high heat. Please do not to overcook or dry out your chicken. Serve with tortillas, shredded cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. Now imagine you are on a beach in Mexico living the life of a well-fed vagabond. Go on, try it!
