    • Very little clean up with minimal dirty dishes.
    • It can be prepped and made ahead of time to make dinner even easier.

    Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas Ingredients

    • Chicken Breast, boneless and skinless
    • Red Bell Pepper
    • Orange Bell Pepper
    • Yellow Bell Pepper
    • Red Onion
    • Taco Seasoning
    • Salt
    • Olive Oil
    • Lime Juice
    • Tortillas
    • For Serving: Cilantro, Sour Cream, Lime Wedges, Diced Tomatoes, Avocados, Salsa, Pico de Gallo, Gaucamole

    Substitution Suggestions:

    • Chicken Breasts: you can also use thinly sliced boneless and skinless chicken thighs.
    • Bell Peppers: You can use any color of bell peppers you like. Even the little mini sweet peppers will work.
    • Red Onion: I like red onion best when roasted, but you can use yellow or white too. Shallots are a good option as well.
    • Taco Seasoning: I make homemade taco seasoning, but if you use the store bought kind that will work. I do reccomend making it yourself though, the flavor is so much better.
    • Olive Oil: Avocado, vegetable, or canola oil can be substituted.

    Tips for Easy Chicken Fajitas

    • Cut the peppers and chicken all the same size for even cooking.
    • Line the sheet pans with parchment for super easy clean up.
    • Rotate the pans and flip the chicken and veggies half way through cooking so both sides roast evenly.
    • Want a little extra spice, add some cayenne pepper to the seasonings or add a sliced jalapeño with the bell peppers.
    • Prepare the chicken and veggies ahead of time and store in fridge up to 3 days until ready to use.

    Storing Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

    Storing: Store any leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge up to 4 days.

    Freezing: This is a great freezer meal. Add the seasoned and oiled sliced chicken and veggies to freezer safe air tight containers or zip top bags. Label, date and freeze for up to 4 months.

    Thawing: Thaw overnight in the fridge, then follow directions for baking.

    Reheating: Reheat any leftovers over low heat on the stove or in the microwave until warmed through.
