Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas
- Total Time: 28 minutes
- Yield: 8 1x
Description
Ingredients
- 2.5 pounds chicken, cut into 1” pieces. (Can substitute with shrimp or steak)
- 3 bell peppers (1 red, 1 orange or yellow, 1 green), cut into strips
- 1 large white onion, cut into strips
- 2 limes squeezed (2 Tablespoons juice)
- 1 & ½ Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil + 1/2 teaspoon for greasing the pan
- 1 cup cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 & ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon paprika (smoked)
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ¾ teaspoon cumin
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss all ingredients together. Let them marinade for 30 minutes at room temperature, or cover it and place it in the refrigerator for up to 6 hours. If you don’t have time to allow the mixture to marinate, that’s okay—they’ll still taste great!
- While your mixture is marinating, preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease one large or two medium non-stick sheet pans and set aside (about ½ teaspoon per pan).
- Evenly spread fajita mixture on pans, careful not to overcrowd. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked and the peppers are tender.
- For a charred finish, broil your fajita mixture for 3 minutes. We recommend only broiling what you plan on eating during that meal so your leftovers don’t dry out.
- Serve the fajita mixture as-is or with warm tortillas and toppings of your choice.
