Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Prepare ingredients: slice the chicken sausage; seed and thinly slice the red, orange, and yellow bell peppers; peel and thinly slice the red onion.
- In a large bowl combine the sliced sausage, sliced peppers, sliced onion, and 2 tablespoons olive oil; toss to coat evenly.
- In a small bowl whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 2 teaspoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon cumin, ½ teaspoon oregano, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, and ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
- Sprinkle the spice-cornstarch mixture over the sausage and vegetables and stir/toss until everything is evenly coated.
- Divide the mixture evenly between the two prepared sheet pans and spread into a single thin layer.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, stirring and flipping the mixture once halfway through (about 7–8 minutes), until the vegetables are tender and the sausage and edges are golden brown.
- Optional: for extra browning, place the pans under the broiler for 1–3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Lightly steam the 12 (6-inch) flour tortillas and keep them warm until serving.
- To serve, spoon the chicken sausage and pepper mixture onto the warmed tortillas and top each with a sprinkle of ½ cup minced cilantro and ½ cup crumbled cotija cheese.
