Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced

1 bell pepper (red, yellow, or green), thinly sliced

1 small onion, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon fajita seasoning

4 mini flatbreads (or pita breads)

1 cup shredded cheese (Monterey Jack or Cheddar)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Salsa and sour cream (for serving, optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken with olive oil and fajita seasoning. Toss well to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

    Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Return the chicken to the skillet and stir to mix everything well.

        Assemble the Flatbread Melts: Preheat your oven broiler. Place the mini flatbreads on a baking sheet. Evenly distribute the chicken and vegetable mixture over the flatbreads. Top each with shredded cheese.

          Melt the Cheese: Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly but not burnt. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.

            Serve: Remove from the oven, and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with salsa and sour cream on the side, if desired. Enjoy your delicious Mini Chicken Fajita Flatbread Melts!
