Print Recipe
Making Chicken Fajitas in an Air Fryer is a simple and efficient process that results in a delicious and healthy meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts,, thinly sliced
  • 1 whole red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 whole green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 whole medium onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt , to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Flour or corn tortillas, for serving

Optional toppings: sour cream, guacamole, salsa, shredded cheese

Instructions

  1. Begin by slicing 1-2 chicken breasts into thin strips.
  2. Slice bell peppers (a mix of red, green, and yellow) and one onion into similar-sized strips for even cooking.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the chicken and vegetable strips.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and lime juice. This not only adds flavor but also helps the seasoning stick to the ingredients.
  5. Add fajita seasoning, which typically includes chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss everything until it’s evenly coated.
  6. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This step ensures that the cooking process starts immediately and helps achieve a good char on the vegetables and chicken.
  7. Place the seasoned chicken and vegetable mixture in the air fryer basket. Try not to overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if necessary.
  8. Air fry for about 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket or stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  9. While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, warm your tortillas (flour or corn) in the oven, on the stovetop, or even in the microwave. Warm tortillas are more pliable and won’t break when you roll them.
  10. Once the chicken and vegetables are cooked and have a nice char, it’s time to assemble the fajitas.
  11. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture onto the warm tortillas.
  12. Serve with your favorite fajita toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, shredded cheese, or fresh cilantro.
  13. Serve your Chicken Fajitas immediately while everything is still warm and enjoy!
