Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp. olive oil

Directions:

In a large skillet cook chicken, onion, cumin, lime pepper seasoning, oregano, and garlic powder in hot olive oil over over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink.

Notes from the Cook: Serve with shredded cheese if you'd like. I love the smoky flavor of the chipotles, you can add more or less depending on your need for heat.
