2 large skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup diced white onion

1/4 teaspoon lime juice, from concentrate

Preparation
-
Cut the chicken into small strips, none longer than two inches, about 1/4 inch thick.
Combine fajita seasoning with water, vinegar, and lime juice in a small bowl.
Marinate chicken in above mixture, covered and refrigerated, for a couple of hours.
Cook marinated chicken strips in a wok over medium-high heat until brown (retain marinade). Use cooking oil to prevent sticking.
Add green pepper and onion, and stir-fry for about 1 minute.
Add remaining marinade, stir-fry until liquid \"escapes\".
Spoon 1/4 of the mixture into the center of one flour tortilla and add 1/2 slice American cheese. Sprinkle with a dash of your pre-mixed fajita seasoning (do this for all four of 'em).
Fold like a burrito with one end open and wrap in a 12x12 sheet of wax paper. Let sit 5-7 minutes.
Microwave, still wrapped, 15 seconds each.
Serve with picante sauce , pico de gallo, or other desired topping.
