Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas Recipe
Description
The Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas Recipe marinates chicken breasts in a mixture of vegetable oil, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, minced garlic, and salt. Peppers and onions receive part of this marinade before being spread out on a baking sheet.
After soaking the chicken in the remaining marinade, it is placed alongside the vegetables on the sheet pan. The dish is cooked under a low broiler for 15 minutes, flipped, then broiled again for another 15 minutes. This method cooks the chicken thoroughly while allowing the vegetables to soften and caramelize slightly.
Once cooled, the chicken is sliced and served with the roasted peppers and onions in tortillas. Traditional fajita toppings such as avocado, pico de gallo, lime, cheese, cilantro, and sour cream may be added to enhance the dish.
