Cooking Steps
Wash and dry produce.
Quarter lime. Halve, core, and thinly slice green pepper into strips. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion.
In a small bowl, combine guacamole, a squeeze of lime juice, and a dash of hot sauce (save the rest for serving). Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add green pepper and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 4-5 minutes.
Add half the Fajita Spice Blend (you’ll use the rest in the next step) and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.
Meanwhile, open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid; pat dry with paper towels.
Push veggies to one side of pan; add a drizzle of oil to empty side. Add chicken and remaining Fajita Spice Blend. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, 5-6 minutes.
Stir veggies and chicken to combine. Add a big squeeze of lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off heat.
Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
Divide tortillas between plates and fill with chicken and veggie filling; top with spicy guacamole and smoky red pepper crema. Serve with remaining hot sauce and any remaining lime wedges on the side.
