- 2 chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 pounds)
- ½ large red bell pepper
- ½ large yellow bell pepper
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (1 ounce) packet of fajita seasoning 2 tablespoons if using homemade seasoning
Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F. If your air fryer doesn’t have a preheat function, set it to 400 degrees F and let it run for 4-5 minutes before adding the fajitas.
Slice the chicken breasts, onion and bell peppers into 1/4 inch thick strips and place in a large bowl.
drizzle over the oil over the chicken and veggies, then Sprinkle the seasoning mix over top and toss until well combined and evenly coated.
Add the seasoned chicken and veggies to the preheated air fryer basket and cook for 14 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, stirring well once halfway through.
Serve in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat leftovers in a 350-degree F air fryer for 3-4 minutes or in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
- I do not recommend freezing the cooked fajitas as the texture of the veggies becomes mush when thawed.
