Ingredients:
� 4 tablespoons canola oil, divided
� 2 tablespoons lemon juice
� 1-1/2 teaspoons 25% less sodium seasoned salt (Lawry's)
� 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
� 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
� 1 teaspoon garlic powder
� 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
� 1/2 teaspoon paprika

� 1/2 medium sweet red pepper, julienned
� 1/2 medium green pepper, julienned
