instructions
    1

    Begin by slicing the chicken into thin strips, seasoning it with salt and pepper, and setting aside for preparation. This should take about 5 minutes.

    2

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.

    3

    Once the oil is hot, add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through, stirring occasionally.

    4

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

    5

    Add the sliced bell pepper and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

    6

    Add 1 teaspoon of Angostura bitters and the juice of 1 lime to the skillet. Stir well to combine, cooking for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    7

    Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

    8

    Serve warm on tortillas, and feel free to add your favorite toppings like salsa, guacamole, or cheese.
