Description

These air fryer chicken fajitas are an easy, protein-packed dinner made with juicy chicken, colorful peppers, and simple fajita seasoning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless & skinless chicken breasts (sliced into thin strips)
  • 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning (salt-free)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper
  • 1/2 green bell pepper
  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 1/2 red onion
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  2. Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.
  3. Slice the yellow, green, and red bell peppers, plus the red onion.
  4. In a large bowl, mix together the avocado oil, fajita seasoning, and salt. Add the chicken and veggies.
  5. Toss everything until the chicken and vegetables are nicely coated.
  6. Spread the seasoned chicken and veggies in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  7. Cook at 380°F (190°C) for 11 minutes.
  8. After 11 minutes, pull out the basket and give it a good shake, or use tongs to flip the chicken and veggies.
  9. Pop it back in and cook for another 11 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are tender with a little char.
  10. Once everything’s done, take the fajitas out of the air fryer and serve right away with warm tortillas, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or whatever toppings you love.
