In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, salsa, oregano, cumin, chili powder, garlic, and salt. Use your hands or a spoon to toss everything together until the chicken is well coated in the spices and salsa. This is where the magic begins as the flavors meld together beautifully.
Next, add the sliced onion and bell peppers to the bowl. Toss them in gently, ensuring they’re evenly mixed with the chicken. The colors will begin to pop, making this dish as visually appealing as it is tasty.
Transfer the mixture into your slow cooker. Make sure to spread it out evenly so everything cooks uniformly. This ensures that each piece of chicken gets the love it deserves from the spices.
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. If you’re using low, be patient and enjoy the delicious aroma filling your home as it cooks.
Once the cooking time is up, check that the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have softened. The chicken should be tender and easy to shred with a fork.
When serving, warm the whole-wheat tortillas. You can do this in a pan or microwave, ensuring they are pliable and ready to hold all the delicious fillings.
Using tongs, fill each tortilla with the chicken and vegetable mixture. Don’t be shy—load it up!
Top each filled tortilla with a generous dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of guacamole. These toppings add creaminess and flavor, enhancing your fajitas.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra zing. This meal is best enjoyed fresh and hot!
