Baked Fajitas

baked fajitas
Yes baked and I challenge you to taste the difference!
I used to stop at a local Mexican store to buy the pre-cut/mixed fajitas and all I had to do was cook them.
I couldn’t tell the difference.
Wait….come to think of it I could tell the difference. These were so much better than that!
You will need:

  • 2-lbs of boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into strips
  • 1 Can of Rotel tomatoes
  • 1/3 of a yellow pepper sliced into strips
  • 1/3 of a red pepper sliced into strips
  • 1/3 of a green pepper sliced into strips (so that all three of these make one whole pepper sliced)
  • 1 small onion sliced into strips
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 10-12 Corn tortillas
Directions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 13 x 9 inch pan with non stick spray.
  2. Mix together chicken, peppers, onions, and tomatoes into the pan.
  3. Mix together the spices and the oil. Drizzle the mixture over the chicken & peppers and toss to coat.
  4. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked all the way through and vegetables are tender.
Serve with toasted (broiled in oven) corn tortillas or soft fry them in olive oil.
I also made my favorite guacamole! Yum!
