    Prep Time:   15 min.    Cook Time:   40 min.    Total Time:   55 min.

Seasoning:
1 Tbs. chili powder
1/2 Tbs. paprika
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. cumin
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 Tbs. corn starch
Fajitas:
2 small (or 1 lg.) onion
2 medium green bell peppers
1 medium red bell pepper
1 1/2 lb. chicken breast
2 Tbs. vegetable oil
1 medium lime
8 tortillas (6 in.)
1/2 cup sour cream (optional)
1/4 bunch cilantro (optional)

Preheat the oven to 400*F.

Mix all of the ingredients for the fajita seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.

Cut the onion and bell peppers into 1/4-1/2 in. wide strips. Place them in a large 9×13 in. casserole dish. Slice the chicken breast into very thin strips and add it to the casserole dish with the vegetables.

Sprinkle the seasoning over the meat and vegetables. Drizzle the vegetable oil over everything and then use your hands to toss the ingredients until everything is well coated in oil and seasoning. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, stirring once half way through. Squeeze the juice from 1/2 of the lime over top of the meat and vegetables after it comes out of the oven.

Scoop a small amount of meat and vegetables into the center of each tortilla. Top with a few sprigs of cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, and an extra squeeze of lime if desired.
