Baked Chicken Fajitas Recipe

You know I’m all about easy recipes, especially during the summer when I want to enjoy the outdoors as much as possible. 

See, here on the Monterey Bay, our summers are often times socked in with fog.  Some days it’s glorious and in the 70’s, then other times the temperature dips into the 60’s and it’s gloomy.  Ho-hum.

Our summer weather doesn’t arrive until September and October.   I always feel a little guilty complaining about fog, especially when I hear my inland friends and family are in sweltering heat!

Sheet Pan Fajitas

So, we need to be super flexible with our outdoor play time. We never know when the fog will roll in to cover our sun, which is why I’ve been relying on quick sheet pan fajita meals!

If you haven’t tried sheet pan meals yet, you’ll love the flexibility in this dish!

Pair some protein with your favorite bell pepper combination seasoned with taco seasoning and dinner is done!

Steps To Make Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

For this recipe I used chicken tenderloins, but you can also use sliced steak, fish or shrimp!

First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees and place your sheet pan in the oven to get sizzling hot. 

While that is heating, prepare the peppers and onion. I opted to use red, orange and yellow peppers.  You need three, so slice up a mix of your favorite!

Gently toss the sliced peppers with some avocado oil and set aside.

Next, remove the pan from the oven and add the peppers to the baking sheet and cook for about 7-8 minutes.

In the meantime, season the chicken with some more avocado oil and taco seasoning.

Once the vegetables are partialy cooked, add the chicken to the pan.  Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake for about 20 minutes. 

That’s it!  Dinner is ready!
