Instructions
- Whisk the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt in a small bowl. Toss the chicken with half of the spice mixture.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, turning once, until browned and cooked through. Transfer it to a plate.
- Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Cook the onion and peppers for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred and tender-crisp.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and sprinkle in the remaining spice mixture. Toss for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and add the lime juice.
