Are you ready to embark on a mouthwatering culinary adventure? If you have a Blackstone griddle, you’re in for a treat! This versatile cooking surface is perfect for creating sizzling chicken fajitas that will tantalize your taste buds.

Gathering the Ingredients

Before you fire up your Blackstone, gather the following ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 large bell pepper (any color)
  • 1 large onion
  • 1/2 cup fajita seasoning
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Tortillas, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa (for serving)

Preparing the Chicken

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, fajita seasoning, and olive oil. Toss to coat evenly. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight).

Slicing the Veggies

While the chicken marinates, slice the bell pepper and onion into thin strips.

Heating the Blackstone Griddle

Preheat your Blackstone griddle over medium-high heat. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil onto the griddle surface.

Cooking the Fajitas

Once the griddle is hot, add the chicken strips. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the griddle and set aside. Add the bell pepper and onion slices to the griddle. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Assembling the Fajitas

Return the chicken to the griddle and heat through for 1-2 minutes. Warm your tortillas on the griddle for a few seconds, then assemble your fajitas with your favorite toppings.

Serving Suggestions

Serve your sizzling chicken fajitas with a variety of toppings, such as:

  • Guacamole
  • Sour cream
  • Salsa
  • Shredded cheese
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Cilantro

Tips for Perfect Fajitas

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the chicken and vegetables thinly. This will ensure even cooking.
  • Don’t overcrowd the griddle. Cook the chicken and vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat to prevent it from drying out.
  • Season the fajitas generously with your favorite fajita seasoning.
  • Serve the fajitas immediately for the best flavor and texture.
