One-Pan Chicken Fajitas
Don’t you love recipes that require virtually no work and very little cleanup?
This one comes together fast, and there’s just one pan! I'm all about 1-pan / sheet pan recipes these days.
Serve with a side of guac, some black beans and you’ve got a quick, healthy weeknight meal.
One-Pan Chicken Fajitas
(Makes 6 servings)
1 tbsp chili powder
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 large yellow and red bell peppers, sliced and seeded
1 large yellow onion, sliced
2 tbsp avocado oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into tender-sized slices
1 lime, juiced (or really any citrus is yummy)
(your choice of toppings: salsa, avocado, goat cheese, pepitas)
Your favourite fajita shells - I'm loving lettuce wraps and the Egg Wraps With Cauliflower (Costco).
Line a baking sheet with foil, and preheat the broiler to high
Mix the chili powder, 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper in a small bowl.
In a larger bowl, toss the peppers and onions with 1 tbsp of oil and place on the baking sheet. Season with half of the chili powder mixture. Broil for about 10 minutes, until they are soft and starting to char.
Toss the chicken with the remaining spice mixture and 1 tbsp oil. Add to the baking sheet with the charred veggies, and broil for 5-8 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and beginning to brown. Drizzle with the lime juice and add salt/pepper to taste.
Remove the oven and put on a serving platter, with your choice of toppings.
ENJOY!
