Toss the chicken and fajita seasoning in a bowl with the remaining lime juice. Heat a large, deep non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the diced chorizo and fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the fat begins to run from the chorizo. Add the chicken and cook over a high heat for 5 minutes until no longer pink.

Stir in the onion and peppers and continue cooking over a high heat, stirring all the time, for 5-6 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the onion and peppers are just tender. Season well with freshly ground black pepper.
