Weeknight Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

Ingredients:

• 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts sliced (against the grain) into 1/2-inch thick strips (or just buy the pre-cut tenders)

• 3 bell peppers, any colour. I used green, yellow and red. Cored and sliced into strips.

• 1 onion, thinly sliced into 1/2 moons

• 2 garlic cloves, minced

• 3 tbsp neutral oil, such as avocado oil.

• 1 lime

• 1/4-1/2 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

• 8-10 small tortillas

• And any of your desired toppings (I desire them all….sour cream, sliced avocado, salsa, shredded cheese, hot sauce, pickled red onions, etc.

  Fajita Seasoning Mix:

• 1 Tablespoon chili powder

• 1 1/2 tsp paprika

• 1 1/2 tsp cumin

• 1/2 tsp onion powder

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• 1/4 tsp oregano

• 1/4 tsp cayenne (or to taste)

• 1/2 tsp salt

Lime Crèma

• Mix together: 1/2 cup sour cream, zest and juice of 1 lime. S&P to taste.

Directions:

1. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Preheat the oven to 425F. 

2. Combine seasoning ingredients together in a small bowl. Sprinkle most of the seasoning all over the chicken and some seasoning over the veggies. Spoon the minced garlic over the chicken and drizzle everything with olive oil. Toss everything well and spread it out in an even layer across the sheet pan.

3. Place the sheet pan into the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

4. Wrap the tortillas in foil and place in the oven to warm during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

5. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Squeeze fresh lime juice all over the chicken and vegetables and sprinkle with the chopped cilantro. Serve in the warmed tortillas with that incredible lime crèma and all your favourite toppings!
