Want a recipe to make the EASIEST chicken fajitas ever?
Oh boy, do I have one for you! You are going to LOVE my easy one-pan chicken fajitas!
I’m not kidding when I say this is EASY.
Grease pan. Place chicken. Season. Place veggies. Season. Bake…. done!
This recipe for the fajita seasoning is so flavorful, I like to eat it without any tortillas, just as is.
If you are low-carb, but still enjoy dairy, I have added cheese to the recipe. Just omit cheese if you are Paleo or Whole30.
And the combination of possible toppings are endless:
- Sour cream
- Guacamole
- Salsa
- Squeeze of lime juice
- More cheese!
- Cilantro
…. Or you can place it on top of a bed of greens and turn it into a delicious salad! Or use cauliflower rice to eat it more like a stir-fry.
