Chicken Fajita | Easy to Cook

Chicken Fajita | Easy to Cook

For times when you want to indulge in the juicy, flavorful chicken strips tossed with vibrant peppers & onions, there’s a magical dish called Chicken Fajita. It’s all pan-seared in an irresistible Indian-spiced marinade, a true crowd-pleaser. Today, we’re using the SUNCASA Castella Frypan, celebrated for its affordable yet premium quality and healthy cooking.

Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 500g boneless chicken breast or thigh, cut into thin strips
  • 2 tbsp oil (any neutral or olive oil)
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1½ tsp Kashmiri red chili powder (or paprika)
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • ½ tsp turmeric powder
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp thick yogurt (for extra tenderness)
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
  • A handful of fresh coriander, chopped (for garnish)
  • Warm tortillas or roti (to serve)

How to Make It

  • In a large bowl, combine yogurt, cumin, chili powder, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, ginger, garlic, lime juice, salt, and half the oil to form a marinade. Add chicken strips and toss well. Marinate for at least 20 minutes (up to 2 hours for best flavor).
  • Heat the cast iron frypan on medium-high until just smoking. Add remaining oil.
  • Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté for 3–4 minutes until tender yet crisp. Remove and set aside.
  • Add the marinated chicken pieces to the same pan. Cook on high flame for 6–8 minutes, stirring now and then, until the chicken is fully cooked and gets a nice brown color on the edges.
  • Return sautéed onions and peppers to the pan. Toss everything together on high heat for 2 minutes so flavors infuse, and vegetables stay crisp.
  • Garnish with fresh coriander. Serve sizzling hot straight from your Suncasa cookware for a premium dining experience.
  • Enjoy with warm tortillas, roti, or as part of a Suncasa dinner set spread.

For Serving & Tips

  • For extra flavour, add a sprinkle of chaat masala just before serving.
  • The rustic charm of Suncasa’s affordable yet healthy cast iron fry pan locks in authentic taste, making these fajitas a showstopper at any meal.
