Tips and tricks for this recipe

  1. Start off by spreading the vegetables and chicken into an even layer on a large-rimmed sheet pan. You definitely need a pan with at least a 1-inch rim.
  2. Sprinkle with seasoning. If you have a favorite brand of fajita seasoning, you can use that instead.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
  4. Also, to give the chicken and vegetables a nice char, you can broil them for the last 2 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle lime zest and lime juice over all before serving. I highly recommend you do not leave this step off. Lime juice and zest really brighten the flavor.
  6. Serve with heated tortillas, lime juice, sour cream, sliced avocado or guacamole, and chopped cilantro.
  7. For a low-carb version, serve with these low-carb tortillas, wrapped in lettuce, or over cauliflower rice.

    Made this for dinner this evening and we loved it! Skipped tortillas and are it over cauliflower rice. This will be a new dinner favorite at our house. Thanks for sharing!
