Ingredients
1/4 cup lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon sugar
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces chicken breast, trimmed of fat and cut into thin strips

1/2 sweet red pepper, cut into 1/2

1. In a self-sealing plastic bag, mix the lime juice, chili powder, oregano, sugar, and garlic. Add the meat and mushrooms, seal the bag, and press gently to coat the chicken with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 30 minutes. 

2. Coat a large non-stick skillet with no-stick vegetable oil spray. Warm over medium-high heat. 

3. Add the meat, mushrooms, and 2 tablespoons of the marinade. Cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes, or until the meat is cooked. 

4. Remove and set aside. Wash and dry the skillet. Coat with no-stick vegetable oil spray. Warm over medium-high heat. Add the onions, red peppers, and yellow peppers. Cover and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the onions start to release moisture.

5. Uncover and cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the onions are golden. If necessary, add 1 or 2 teaspoons of water to prevent sticking. Season to taste with the black pepper and salt (if using).
