I like chicken fajitas. They are too easy to make, ideal for a dinner or to meet with friends and prepare something "self-service" different from a homemade pizza.
The trick of this recipe for chicken fajitas is to make a good guacamole, and prepare the chicken strips at their exact point. That they are slightly crispy on the outside but not dry, rather juicy, on the inside.
Although this recipe is explained, here is the link to a post where I explain how to make guacamole step by step in detail.
I recommend that when you saute the vegetables, you do them separately, this way you control the exact cooking of each one. In the case of hot pepper, if you want to use it, skip it very quickly, just give it a heat stroke and that's it.
Do not forget the lemon stream at the end.

In a large skillet, saute the vegetables in a high heat: onion, pepper, hot pepper and tomato. Remove the vegetables from the pan, but keep them handy because ...
... in that same pan, even at high heat, add another spoonful of oil and cook the chicken strips until golden brown on both sides. The idea is to leave a slightly crusty layer on the outside and juicy on the inside.
