Equipment

  • sheet pan

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts boneless, skinless - slice into ½ inch strips
  • 1 green bell pepper
    seeds removed and thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper seeds removed and thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper seeds removed and thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoon fajita seasoning homemade or use a packet, no judgment!
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lime
  • optional garnishes, lime, cilantro, salsa, sour cream, jalapenos, guacamole or avocado slices

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees - line the baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Slice the chicken breast into thin ½ inch strips. 
  • Clean the peppers, remove the seeds and thinly slice, do the same with the onion.
  • Spread the chicken, peppers and onions evenly onto the pan, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with homemade fajitas mix. If possible, keep the chicken on the edges of the pan as it will cook more quickly.
  • Place in the preheated oven. Roast until the chicken is completely cooked 18-22 minutes, it will depend upon how crowded your pan is. 
  • Finish by squeezing with fresh lime when you remove it from the oven. Serve with tortillas and your toppings of choice!

Notes

Don't forget to line the sheetpan with parchment paper or tinfoil for easy clean-up!
 
The edges of the sheet pan get hot more quickly, lay the chicken around the edges and pile the peppers and onions in the center.
