  • Around 80 g maida or refined wheat flour, kneaded.
  • A cup of pineapple crush.
  • A medium-sized lime, juiced and zested.

How to Prepare

• • Slice chicken breast into thinner pieces (about an inch) to make them flavourful.
  • Start with marinating the chicken. In a bowl, take pineapple crush, lemon juice, lime zest, apple cider vinegar, chillies, cumin powder, soy sauce, sweet, sour and spicy sauce, garlic, coriander leaves and salt to taste, and mix all of them well.
  • Add chicken breast pieces into the bowl and let them marinate for around half an hour at room temperature.
  • In a large pan, heat half the oil and add marinated chicken breast pieces and cook both sides well.
  • Transfer the pieces to a plate.
  • In the same pan, add the remaining oil and saute onions and capsicums until they are soft.
  • Add the chicken pieces back to the pan and mix them well.
  • Take the kneaded maida dough and prepare equal-sized chapatis.
  • Once done, serve the fajitas into the chapatis.
  • Top it with cucumber and coriander leaves.

Instructions

• You can add tandoori spice while marinating the chicken.
