    Directions

    This quick sheet‑pan chicken fajita recipe delivers tender, juicy chicken, roasted peppers, and bold seasoning all in one easy pan. It’s fast, flavorful, and perfect for piling into warm tortillas with your favorite toppings.

    Step1

    Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of oregano or Mexican oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, then stir.

    Step2

    Stem and seed the bell peppers, then remove the inner membranes so the peppers are clean and ready to slice.

    Step3

    Slice the cleaned bell peppers into thin strips and slice the onion the same way.

    Step4

    Drizzle the sliced onions and peppers with about 1½ tablespoons of olive oil, then season with half of the fajita seasoning.

    Step5

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Cut the chicken into thin strips by slicing short ways across the breast, not from end to end. Cutting this way will make the chicken more tender.

    Step6

    Add the chicken to the bowl of vegetables and drizzle with remaining olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining seasoning.

    Step7

    Toss everything together until well coated, then spread it in a single, even layer on the prepared sheet pan so it roasts rather than steams. Bake for 18–22 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are softened but still tender‑crisp.

    Step8

    Serve with a squeeze of lime juice, plus more lime wedges, shredded cheddar cheese, Salsa, Pico de Gallo, chopped cilantro, diced jalapeño peppers, and your favorite hot sauce.

    Step9

    Enjoy!
