    All the flavors of chicken fajitas created into a simple low-carb sheet pan dinner!

    Healthy Baked Chicken Fajita Sheet Pan Dinner

    This past year I discovered sheet pan dinners and never looked back. There’s so much I love about them I don’t even know where to start. For one, sheet pan dinners are super easy to throw together. Basically just spread out some meat and vegetables onto a large baking sheet, drizzle some olive oil over top, and bake for about 30 -45 minutes depending on the ingredients. Sheet pan dinner make for an easy healthy weeknight meal.

    I also love making sheet pan dinners on meal prep day because you can prepare a bunch of food and then portion it out for lunches or dinner during the week. That’s exactly what I did with this beyond easy sheet pan chicken fajita recipe. Actually, I don’t even know how I feel about calling it a recipe because it’s so simple. Oh well, I know you love easy, and I’m here to give you want you want.

    Let’s go over this recipe.

    All I did was slice up 2 red bell peppers and 1 large white onion. Then I cut 1 1/2 pounds of chicken breasts into strips and mixed it in a bowl with the vegetables, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and 1 packet Simply Organic Southwest Taco Seasoning. You can use any favorite taco seasoning or make your own. I’ve used Simply Organic seasonings for a long time and that’s the one I stick with.

    Just mix it around until all of the ingredients are coated with olive oil and seasoning. At this point you could store in the refrigerator for a couple days if you wanted to prep this ahead of time.

    Next I spread the fajita ingredients onto a large baking sheet and cooked for 40 – 45 minutes in a 370 degree oven or until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear. See, I told you this was easy.

    After it was done cooking I sprinkled some salt over the top and then squeeze on lime juice. I finished it with chopped tomato and cilantro. This would be delicious with avocado, salsa, and whatever fajita condiment you can think of.

    I ate this with a salad and absolutely loved it! The flavors were great. You can enjoy this with tortillas, taco shells, over rice or quinoa, or just as is.

    Like I said earlier, I enjoy making sheet pan dinners on meal prep day and that’s what I did with this chicken fajita recipe. After it was cooked and slightly cooled I place the chicken and vegetables in a glass pyrex dish and enjoyed this all week for lunch or dinner.

    If you’re looking for a healthy sheet pan dinner recipe then I recommend putting this chicken fajita recipe on your meal plan soon.
