Equipment

  • Sheet pan

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts sliced (against the grain) into 1/2-inch thick strips
  • 3 bell peppers green, yellow and red, cored and sliced into strips
  • 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 Tablespoons oil vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 8-10 small flour tortillas

Fajita Seasoning

  • 1 Tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Light grease a large sheet pan with non-stick cooking spray. Cut chicken and vegetables into strips. Lay the vegetables evenly on the pan and place the chicken on top of them.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Combine seasoning ingredients together in a small bowl. Stir well to combine. Sprinkle most of the seasoning over the chicken, and some of it over the vegetables as well.
  • Spoon minced garlic on top of the chicken and drizzle olive oil over the entire pan. Toss everything well and spread it into an even layer across the pan.
  • Cook for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees if you test with a thermometer).
  • Wrap the flour tortillas in foil and place them in the oven to warm during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  • Remove everything from the oven. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the chicken and vegetables and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve in warm tortillas with extra toppings, if desired.
