Steps:
- MARINADE: In a large freezer bag, whisk together all of the Chicken Fajita Marinade ingredients. Remove ¼ cup to a separate freezer bag and add the bell peppers and onions. To the first bag, add the chicken and turn to evenly coat. Marinate the chicken and the vegetables in the refrigerator for 4 hours up to overnight.
- DRESSING: Make the dressing while the chicken is marinating so it has time to chill. Whisk all of the dressing ingredients together in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Add additional lime juice for a tangier dressing and cayenne pepper for a spicier dressing.
