Heat a cast iron pan with 2 tbsp of olive oil on medium heat. Sear the chicken on both sides until golden, charred and cooked through (about 6-8 minutes on each side).
Transfer the chicken to a plate, and slice into strips.
Heat the pan with 1 tbsp olive oil, add 7 oz bell peppers and 7 oz onions. Stir-fry until the veggies are tender. Season with the spice blend and 2 tbsp lime juice.
