Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow onion, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

8 small flour or corn tortillas

Optional toppings: guacamole, sour cream, fresh cilantro, lime wedges

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the chicken and veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced chicken, red and green peppers, and onion.

      Season the mixture: Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken and veggies. Sprinkle with chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.

        Spread on the sheet pan: Transfer the mixture to a large sheet pan, spreading it out evenly in a single layer.

          Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

            Warm the tortillas: While the chicken and veggies are baking, wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and place them in the oven for the last 5-7 minutes of cooking time to warm them.

              Serve: Once everything is done, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Serve the sizzling chicken and veggies on a platter with warm tortillas on the side. Let everyone build their own fajitas with optional toppings.
