Fajita Skillet

I have searched for an amazing fajita recipe and none of them have ever matched up to the ones you get at a restaurant UNTIL....I found this one!! And I LOVE it!!!
2 flour tortillas (10 in. cut into 1/2 in strips) I like the uncooked ones!!!
3 tbs. olive oil, divided
1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1/2 lb. boneless beef sirloin steak, cut into strips
1 medium green pepper, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
2 tbs. soy sauce
2 tsp. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. ground cumin-i hate cumin so it tastes good w/o it too
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. cornstarch
2 tbs. lime or orange juice-fresh
1 cup cubed fresh pineapple
1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped
In a large skillet, fry tortilla strips in 2 tbs. oil on both sides for 1 min or until golden brown. Drain on paper towel.
In the same skillet, cook the chicken and beef. Drain and wipe pan clean. Put meat back in skillet and add green pepper, onion, soy sauce, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin and pepper in remaining oil for 3-4 min.
In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and lime/orange juice until smooth. Stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 min or until thickened. Stir in pineapple and tomato; heat through. Serve with tortilla strips.
