Ingredients

40 minutes
Serves 3 servings
  1. 2boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  2. 3whole cleaned nopales (cactus paddles)
  3. as neededCheese of your choice,
  4. 1bell pepper
  5. 1/2onion
  6. 1 handfulsliced mushrooms
  7. Spices of your choice, to taste

Cooking Instructions

40 minutes
  1. 1

    First, slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and place them in a skillet. Season to taste; I used paprika, garlic salt, and lemon pepper. On the side of the skillet, add the bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms, all cut into thin strips, and season with garlic salt and a splash of soy sauce.

  2. 2

    Cover the skillet. I like the chicken to get a little crispy, so at the end, uncover it for a bit until browned.

  3. 3

    Place the nopales in the air fryer and spray both sides with cooking oil. If you don't have spray, use a paper towel to coat them with oil. Cook for 10 minutes at 400°F (about 204°C), flipping them when almost done on the second side. Add the cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Remove the nopales, slice the chicken into fajita strips, and place them on top. Serve the vegetables on the side, add your favorite salsa, and enjoy with corn tortillas.
