This one-dish oven baked fajita recipe is bursting with southwest flavor and makes an easy weeknight meal! Perfect for chicken fajita salads, burrito bowls, or classic fajitas

One-Dish Oven Baked Fajitas

chicken breasts ((up to 2lbs. chicken will work))

sweet bell

yellow onion, thinly sliced

tbsp homemade taco seasoning

tbsp tapioca starch ((see notes))

brown rice

guacamole

pico de gallo

greens

black or pinto beans

cilantro

lime wedges

Preheat oven to 400.

Place the sliced peppers and sliced onion in a 9x13 baking dish. Try to push the peppers and onions to the edges of the pan as much as possible to make room for the chicken. Place chicken breasts on the bottom of the dish (if you have some peppers underneath the chicken that&#039;s okay).

Drizzle the chicken and veggies with olive oil. Next, mix the seasoning mix and tapioca starch together. Then sprinkle this over the chicken, peppers, and onions. (NOTE: if using store-bought seasoning, you do not need the tapioca starch - just sprinkle directly on chicken/veggies).

Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 F (see notes). Mix peppers half way through baking time.

Remove chicken breasts from the baking dish and shred with two forks. Place shredded chicken back in dish and mix with the pepper and onions.

Enjoy!

In a large ziploc bag, place chicken breast, olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin and salt. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2-4 hours or overnight.

Heat grill to medium heat.

Instant Pot Instructions

Boy, my auto correct/proofreading is horrible!

I often take this for a Church potluck (leaving the corn out). Everyon loves it. They especially love the addition of the black beans not ever having them  before. I do like to sub them with intos every now and then.  Most of the dishes that I take to potluck at by you.  I haven't found a bad one yet! Thank you so much for doing what yo do!!

I made the instapot version, and my boys loved it so much. They ask for it weekly!

Taste delicious 😋  thankyou I will definitely be using your chicken recipes and crockpot chicken dinners.

Oh this sounds so good, I simply love Mexican food and plan on making this soon.  I like to do a lot of prep work when I buy my groceries.  I'll get 3 or4 bunches of green onions, clean them and chop up fairly small slices and freeze them in a ziplock bag.  Same with regular onions, peppers, and herbs like cilantro. I'm elderly so I like to make things as easy for me as I can.  A whole chicken is too much for just me, so I buy canned chicken breast.  Small cans for chicken salad for sandwiches or to put into my fiesta style scrambled eggs, and large ones for casseroles to take somewhere or for yummy stuff like this. It's much cheaper for me. Love your recipes!!!
