Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 2 people

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup roma tomatoes diced
  • 1/2 yellow onion sliced
  • 2 bell peppers any color, sliced
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 ounce fajita seasoning store-bought or homemade
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro minced
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into strips
  • 8 flour tortillas medium
  • Optional garnishes queso fresco, cilantro, lime, and Greek yogurt

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Small Bowl
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Tongs or spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C) and grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray or a light coating of oil.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the diced roma tomatoes, sliced yellow onion, and sliced bell peppers until evenly combined; spread the vegetables in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the plain Greek yogurt, fajita seasoning, and minced cilantro to make a coating sauce.
  4. Add the chicken strips to the yogurt mixture and toss until the chicken is fully coated.
  5. Nestle the coated chicken strips among the vegetables on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  6. Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are fork-tender; internal temperature of chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
  7. With about 8 minutes remaining on the timer, wrap the tortillas in foil and place them in the oven to warm.
  8. Remove the sheet pan and warmed tortillas from the oven, assemble fajitas with optional queso fresco, cilantro, lime, and extra Greek yogurt, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Cut vegetables and chicken into similar sizes for even cooking.
  • Use store-bought fajita seasoning or homemade to taste.
  • Warm tortillas in foil to keep them soft.
  • Queso fresco and lime brighten the finished fajitas.
