Sheet pan chicken fajitas

Step by Step

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375ºF and grease the pan with avocado oil.

Step 2

Add the chicken strips, salsa, and fajita seasoning to a bowl and toss until the chicken is coated in spices and salsa. Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes (longer for extra flavor).

Step 3

Transfer the peppers, onions, and garlic to the baking sheet and drizzle the avocado oil over the vegetables and season them with fajita seasoning. Toss all of the ingredients together until the veggies are coated. Spread the vegetables out over half of the baking sheet.

Step 4

Spread the chicken strips out over the other half of the baking sheet. Bake everything together for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through the cooking time.

Step 5

Turn the heat to broil and broil the chicken and peppers for 1-2 minutes until the chicken and peppers brown and form crispy edges.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and serve immediately with tortillas and fixings.

Tips and Warnings

1.5 lbs. of boneless, skinless chicken thighs came out to 6 thighs for us. It will vary by the size of the chicken thighs used.
We used our homemade fajita seasoning but you can use store-bought fajita seasoning as well.
If you’d like the fajitas to be spicier, add ½ -1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
