Ingredients
  1. 25 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 4″ strips
  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 1 green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  4. 1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  5. 1 medium red onion, coarsely chopped
  6. 1 Jalapeno pepper, seeded, coarsely chopped (leave the seeds for more heat)
  7. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  8. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  9. 1 teaspoon cumin
  10. 1 teaspoon chili powder
  11. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  12. Kosher or sea salt to taste
  13. 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
  14. 1/2 cup chicken broth, low-fat, low sodium
  15. 6 (8 inch) whole grain flour tortillas, reduced sodium if available.
  16. 1/2 cup fat free, plain Greek yogurt
  17. 1/2 cup reduced fat cheddar cheese
  18. Omit the cumin, chili powder, black pepper, cayenne and cilantro and use instead 2 teaspoons taco seasoning.
Instructions
  1. Use two medium bowls, add chicken to one and bell peppers, onion and jalapeno to the other. Combine in a small bowl, olive oil, black pepper, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, salt and cilantro. Divide oil mixture evenly over chicken and bell pepper mixture, toss both to combine.
  2. Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat, add chicken and sear on both sides. Remove chicken and place on a plate while cooking peppers. Reduce heat to medium, add bell pepper mixture to the same skillet and cook until tender, about 8 to10 minutes. Return chicken to skillet with peppers, add chicken broth and cook until chicken is done and broth has cooked down.
  3. Warm Tortillas
  4. Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Wrap tortillas that are stacked on top of each other, in a damp dishtowel and place in a covered casserole dish. Warm for 15 to 20 minutes while chicken cooks.
  5. Microwave Method: A microwave can be used as an alternative. Stack tortillas, with a paper towel in between each one, cover with a damp dishtowel and warm for 1 minute. Serve immediately.
  6. Evenly divide fajitas between 6 tortillas, add Greek yogurt and cheddar cheese.
