Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas
A quick & easy one pan meal that the whole family loves! Healthy, balanced, & ready in 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 2-3 T Olive Oil *see notes
- 1.5 lb Chicken Breast boneless / skinless, cut into thin strips
- 3 Bell Peppers your choice, I use red/yellow/orange cut into strips
- 1 large Red Onion cut into wedges
- 1 bunch Cilantro
- 2 Limes
Fajita Seasoning *see notes
- 1 T Chili Powder
- 2 t Smoked Paprika
- 1 t Cumin Powder
- 1 t Onion Powder
- 1 t Garlic Powder
- ¼ – ½ t Cayenne Powder ¼ = mild, ½ = medium/hot
- 2 t Salt
- 1 t Black Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 F.
- In a medium – large bowl, combine the chicken, peppers, and onions. Add olive oil and fajita seasoning; toss gently until chicken and veggies are evenly coated.
- Dump chicken & veggies onto the baking sheet & spread out evenly. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- While it cooks, roughly chop the cilantro. Halve the limes, or cut into wedges if you prefer.
- Squeeze lime halves over the whole pan or serve with lime wedges. Top with cilantro & serve extra on the side.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- The amount of Olive Oil & Fajita Seasoning will vary depending on the size of your peppers & onion. If they are on the smaller side, start with 2 tablespoons of each. Add more as needed to coat all pieces evenly.
- The Fajita Seasoning Recipe will make more than is needed for this meal. Personally, I usually double the recipe & keep it on hand for various other dishes. Omelettes, breakfast burritos, burrito bowls, enchiladas, veggie tacos etc.
