Thread your pieces of chicken and onion onto wooden skewers. I always try to put the onion by the chicken because I’ve found that gives the chicken the most flavor.

These Chicken Fajitas on a Stick are a fun way to serve fajitas. Grilled chicken, peppers, and onion for a Mexican dinner on a stick.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 6 -8 skewers

Ingredients

  • 1/2 white onion, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds of boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons Old El Paso™ fajita seasoning mix, (from a 1 oz package)
  • Wooden skewers
  • 8 Old El Paso™ Stand 'N Stuff™ soft tortillas
  • Toppings: shredded cheese, guacamole, sour cream, etc.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat grill to medium heat and oil grate. Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning.
  • In a medium bowl, add the onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil and toss to coat.
  • In another medium bowl, add the chicken and remaining tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle with lime juice and 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning mix. Toss to coat.
  • Assemble the skewers. Thread the onion, bell peppers, and chicken onto the skewers. Use about 4-5 pieces of chicken per skewer placing the peppers and onions in between. I like to place the onion next to the chicken so that it gives it flavor.
  • Grill for 4-6 minutes per side or until chicken is no longer pink. A tip: The chicken is not ready to turn if it is sticking. It will let go of the grill when it's ready.
  • Serve immediately in warmed tortillas and top with your favorite toppings.
