Baked Chicken Fajitas


Baked Chicken Fajitas

I'll give this 4 stars!
Tastes just like the regular fajitas but you don't have to stand there getting  hot oil splashed on you and you don't have to use as much oil (there's a little in the seasoning).  Everyone really liked it, except the 4 yr old that says chicken puts gold in his throat (if only that were true).  There was a lot of juice in the bottom from the vegetables, but it kept the chicken really moist.  I'll make this again.

serves 4 – 6

Ingredients:
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes (we sliced up fresh tomatoes)
1 (4 oz) can diced green chilies
1 medium onion, sliced
1 large bell pepper, seeded and sliced
2 T vegetable oil
2 t. chili powder
2 t. cumin
1/2 t. garlic powder
1/2 t. dried oregano
1/4 t. salt
12 flour tortillas, warmed to serve

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 13×9 baking dish. Mix together chicken, tomatoes, chilies, peppers, and onions in the dish.
  2. In a small bowl combine the oil and spices. Drizzle the spice mixture over the chicken and toss to coat.
  3. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  4. Serve with shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, homemade salsa, and warmed tortillas. Enjoy!!
