Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice of 1/2 a lime (reserve second half for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest + enough for desired garnish
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped, + enough for desired garnish
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 thin chicken breasts
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 orange bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/4 red onion, sliced

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and lime juice.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine cilantro, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  3. Lay chicken down on a working surface. Dip into oil/lime juice mixture and then sprinkle the chicken with the spice mix and rub into the chicken.
  4. Place 6 bell pepper slices and 2 red onion slices on the center of each piece of chicken and roll each one tightly. Keeping seam side down, place on on your baking pan or sheet (I use a glass casserole dish.)
  5. Bake at 400 for 20-25 mins. I always use a meat thermometer to determine doneness.
