Baked Chicken Fajitas

Another one of my redo's...I hope you guys aren't mad at me for doing this, but man some of those pictures were horrible.  What's funny is I will probably look back on these in a year and feel the same way.  Oh gosh I sure hope not.  Otherwise I am now in a vicious cycle!  

Either way this is a great recipe that deserves revisiting.  It is quick, easy, and delicious.  I love fajitas and having an easy recipe like this one just makes me love them more :)



Baked Chicken Fajitas
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into thin strips
2 cans diced tomatoes w/ green chilies, drained (ie. Rotel)
1 large sweet onion, sliced thin (I really like onions!)
1 large bell pepper, seeded and sliced thin
2 TBS vegetable oil
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp dried oregano

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a glass 13x9 baking dish
  • Toss everything in a large bowl or ziploc bag and toss to coat everything well
  • Place in the prepared baking dish
  • Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until chicken is done and veggies are tender
  • Serve in warmed tortillas with cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo, guacamole, or whatever other toppings your family likes.
Super easy and delicious, but Fajitas are one of my favorites.  I just love all the flavors with minimal ingredients.  Give this one a try soon!
