Sheet Pan Fajitas Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450˚F and place the oven rack in the centre of the oven.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, paprika and red pepper flakes. Set aside.

3. 3

   If you are using chicken thighs or breasts, slice them into 1-inch strips. If you are using chicken tenters, cut each one in half in the length.

4. 4

   Slice the peppers and onions into ½-inch strips.

5. 5

   Line a baking sheet with foil and drizzle a little oil on the sheet.

6. 6

   Place the onions and peppers and chicken pieces onto the centre of a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the spices, and drizzle with the lime juice, soy sauce and oil. Using your hands, toss everything together and spread it out into a single layer.

7. 7

   Bake for 25-35 minutes. Wrap the tortillas in tinfoil. In the last 10 minutes of cooking time, add the foil-wrapped package of tortillas to the same rack or a rack above or below it. Remove the fajita tray from the oven when the peppers and onions looked charred on the edges and the chicken has browned slightly. Remove the foil-wrapped tortillas as well.

8. 8

   Slice an avocado into slices or mash the avocado flesh with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of salt.

9. 9

   Serve the fajita mix in the warmed tortillas with avocado, sour cream and salsa (if using). Serves 4.
