Food Friday - Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas

Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas
adapted from Real Mom Kitchen

This really was a success and was very good.  I would make a few tweaks to it next time and I'll share those at the end of the recipe.  The nice thing about this recipe is that you could throw it together the night before and have it ready to throw in the dinner the next evening.  

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
• 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tsp chili powder
• 2 tsp cumin
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp dried oregano
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 1 large bell pepper, seeded and sliced (I use half a green and half a red)
• 12 flour tortillas
• Toppings such as cheese, sour cream, and guacamole – if desired

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place chicken strips in a greased 13×9 baking dish.
2. In a small bowl combine the oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt
3. Drizzle the spice mixture over the chicken and stir to coat.
4. Next add the tomatoes, peppers, and onions to the dish and stir to combine.
5. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Serve on tortillas with desired toppings.

  I, personally, would cut the Cumin and Chili Powder in half.  It was very overpowering.  That's just me though :-)
