Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs (thinly sliced into ½-inch thick strips)
  • ½ cup salsa (any kind)
  • 2.5 tablespoons fajita seasoning (homemade or store-bought)
  • 3-4 medium bell peppers (sliced (any color))
  • 1 large white onion (sliced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 8-10 street taco tortillas (corn or flour)
  • Optional Toppings: Shredded cheese (sour cream, avocado slices, salsa, fresh cilantro)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375ºF and grease a baking sheet with avocado oil.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chicken strips, salsa, and fajita seasoning, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Spread the peppers, onions, and garlic on one half of the baking sheet. Drizzle avocado oil over them and season with fajita seasoning.
  4. Spread the marinated chicken strips on the other half of the baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through.
  6. Turn on the broiler and broil the chicken and peppers for 1-2 minutes until browned and crispy.
  7. Serve immediately with tortillas and your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • 1.5 lbs. of chicken thighs equals about 6 thighs, but this may vary.
  • You can use store-bought fajita seasoning if preferred.
  • For extra spice, add ½ – 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the seasoning mix.
