Gold Medal Sizzling Fajitas

This is a great and quick recipe for some amazing fajitas.  You can use any kind of meat you would like (steak, chicken, shrimp).  I chose chicken for ours, but I'm excited to try steak and shrimp as well.  The flavors are great together.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-4 Tbs vegetable oil, divided
-3 Tbs lemon juice
-1 garlic clove, minced
-1 tsp ground cumin
-1 tsp garlic powder
-1 tsp onion powder
-dash of hot sauce
-salt
-pepper
-1 1/2 lbs meat (boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, steak, or peeled and deveined shrimp), cut into chunks (except for shrimp)
-1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
-1 green bell pepper, sliced
-1 red bell pepper, sliced
-tortillas
-sour cream, for topping
-salsa, for topping
-guacamole, for topping,
-shredded cheddar cheese, for topping
Directions:
Combine 2 Tbs oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, hot sauce, salt and pepper.  Mix well.  Add meat chunks or shrimp and toos around to coat.  Cover and let sit in the fridge for about 1 hour.
Spray a large skillet with cooking spray.  Place the meat in hot skillet, discarding the marinade.  Cook until meat is cooked through.
While the meat is cooking, heat the remaining oil in another large skillet.  Add the onion and bell peppers.  Cook until crisp-tender, seasoning with some salt and pepper.
Warm up the tortillas.
Place meat, veggies, and toppings on tortillas.  Wrap up and enjoy!
