1

Clean the boneless chicken thighs, removing excess fat and connective tissue, and cut into long strips.

2

In a bowl, coat the chicken strips with olive oil and fajita seasoning, ensuring an even coat. Let it marinate in the fridge for about an hour.

3

Cut the sweet onion and bell peppers into long pieces, using about a quarter of the onion and one of each colored pepper.

4

Squeeze lime juice over the vegetables to add flavor and prevent browning, then set aside.

5

Preheat the Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat and apply a layer of olive oil or cooking oil.

6

Add the marinated chicken strips to the griddle, spreading them out to cook evenly.

7

Once the chicken is halfway cooked and starting to char, flip it over and add the vegetables to the griddle.

8

Sprinkle additional fajita seasoning over the vegetables and mix them around, cooking until fragrant and al dente.

9

Keep moving the chicken and vegetables on the griddle to ensure even cooking and prevent drying out.

10

Prepare tortillas on the griddle as the chicken and vegetables finish cooking.
