Ingredients

Fajitas

1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs trimmed and sliced
1 large onion sliced (yellow or red)
2 bell peppers sliced (yellow, red, or orange)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 lime for squeezing

For Serving (Optional)

Tortillas
Sour cream
Salsa
Avocado
Cheese

Method

Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with foil or coat it with cooking spray for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl or gallon Ziploc bag, toss the chicken, onion, and bell peppers with the olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix the salt, pepper, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Sprinkle over the chicken and veggies and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared sheet pan. Bake about 25 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime. Serve with tortillas and your favorite toppings.
