How to make it, step by step

1. Cook the rice in plenty of salted water according to the package (about 12-15 minutes), drain it and keep it covered so it stays fluffy.
2. Meanwhile, cut the chicken breast into thin strips and season with salt and pepper. Cut the red and green bell peppers into strips and slice the onion thinly.
3. Heat half the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat and stir-fry the chicken strips for 5-6 minutes until browned; remove and set aside.
4. In the same skillet add the remaining oil and stir-fry the peppers and onion for 5 minutes until softened but still with some bite.
5. Return the chicken to the skillet, add the crushed tomatoes, paprika, cumin and garlic powder, and stir-fry everything together for 2-3 minutes so the flavors come together.
6. Divide the rice between two plates and top with the chicken and pepper fajitas. Serve piping hot.
