Description

Easy and flavorful sheet pan chicken fajitas with colorful veggies, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch strips
  • 3 large bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced thin
  • 1 large red onion, sliced thin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Zest and juice of 2 limes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 small flour tortillas (or corn, if preferred), warmed
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, lime zest, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. Add the chicken strips, bell peppers, and onions to the bowl. Toss well to coat everything evenly with the marinade.

  4. Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly on the prepared sheet pan. Bake for 22-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender-crisp.

  5. For extra char and flavor, broil on high for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully.

  6. Serve sizzling hot in warmed tortillas. Garnish with chopped cilantro and extra lime wedges. Enjoy!
