Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

Recipe idea from Nicole Majors

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime zest
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 bell peppers, red, orange, yellow
• 1 sweet onion
• 1 pound chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
• tortillas

topping ideas:

• cotija or cheddar cheese
• sour cream
• salsa
• cilantro
• scallions
• lime wedges
• avocados

Directions:

*Note: if desired, you can marinate the peppers and chicken 24 hours ahead of time in separate bags or dishes.

Preheat the oven to 425F. Prepare/grease a baking sheet.

In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, zest, honey, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and garlic. Thinly slice peppers and onions, and place them on the baking sheet. Add half of the marinade and toss them well, until they’re covered. Stick the sheet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, tossing once or twice during cook time. In the meantime, place the chicken in a bowl and pour the remaining marinade over top. Let sit until the peppers are roasted.

Once the peppers are finished, toss them a few times and scoop them over to one side of the pan. Place the chicken on the sheet in a single layer. Roast the chicken for 15 more minutes.

Once the chicken is done, assemble fajitas and enjoy.
