8 servings

  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
  • ¾ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried cilantro leaves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Instructions

  • Whisk orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, dried onion, oregano, cilantro, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Measure out 1/4 cup of the marinade and set aside. Pour remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag, place chicken in the bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess; discard remaining marinade.
  • Cook and stir chicken in a large skillet over medium-high heat until lightly browned and cooked through, 3 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Cook and stir pepper and onion in the same skillet with reserved 1/4 cup of marinade until vegetables are tender and liquid is reduced, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to skillet; cook and stir until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Spoon chicken mixture into tortillas.
