Method

1. Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and toss them in a bowl with paprika, cumin, and salt.
2. Cut the bell peppers and onion into long, thin slices.
3. Heat half the olive oil in a large pan over high heat and sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes until golden, then set aside.
4. In the same pan, add the remaining oil and sauté the peppers and onions for 6-8 minutes until softened and slightly charred.
5. Return the chicken to the pan, squeeze over the lime juice, and toss everything together for 1 minute.
6. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry pan for 30 seconds per side.
7. Serve the hot chicken and peppers alongside the warm tortillas and a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Tips

• For the best texture, ensure the pan is very hot before adding the chicken to get that authentic charred finish.
• Store the chicken and vegetable mix separately from the tortillas; it stays delicious in the fridge for up to 3 days.
