Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C(fan)/400°F/Gas 6.
- Make the seasoning by mixing together 1 tablespoon Chilli powder, 1 tablespoon Smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon Garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Onion powder, 1 teaspoon Cumin, 1 teaspoon Ground coriander, 1 pinch Sea salt, 1 pinch Ground black pepper and 1 pinch Sugar.
- Put 300 g Chicken breast into a large bowl with 1 tablespoon Olive oil, 3 Bell peppers, 1 Red onion and the seasoning. Mix well. Put in the fridge for at least two hours, but preferably overnight.
- Add the chicken and vegetables to a large oven-proof pan.
- Put into the oven for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Once cooked, squeeze the juice of 1 Lime over the cooked dish and sprinkle with 10 g Fresh coriander (cilantro).
- Divide the mixture between 4 Tortilla wraps and serve with Salsa, Guacamole, Sour cream and Tortilla chips
Notes
- You don't have to use chicken in this. Swap the chicken for extra veggies, or use tofu, king prawns, halloumi or steak strips.
- When mixing everything together, use your hands to make sure everything is fully coated with oil and the seasoning.
- Make sure you don't overcrowd your baking dish, as this will make the chicken and vegetables steam, rather than get those caramelised edges.
- You could serve this on top of rice, or with tortilla wraps, salsa and guac.
- Try making your own fajita seasoning and store it in an air-tight container.
- For extra flavour, try marinating the chicken and vegetables over night.
