Sheet Pan Fajitas
These sheet pan fajitas are great to make for a quick weeknight meal. Chop veggies and chicken ahead of time and store in the fridge until you're ready to cook. This recipe also works well for dinner parties. No stove top pans to watch, just pop it in the oven and visit with your guests.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place sliced bell peppers, onions, and chicken on a sheet pan. Gently toss to mix.
Sprinkle entire packet of dry fajita seasoning over the chicken and vegetables.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Gently toss to coat. Most of the seasoning mix will still be dry. The chicken and veggies will create juices as they cook to create a flavorful sauce. Pieces with more seasoning add zesty bites to your finished fajita.
Place the sheet pan in the oven and cook at 400 degrees F for 18-22 minutes or until the chicken reaches 165 degrees F.
Remove sheet pan from the oven and gently toss mixture with clean serving tongs.
Serve with corn or flour tortillas. Optional: top with lime juice, shredded cheese, sour cream, cilantro, salsa, or guacamole.
Note: This recipe works great with other proteins like steak or shrimp (be sure to adjust the cooking time). Other veggies (or even fruit) can be added for variety as well!
