Instructions
- Add the chicken and prepared vegetables to a large mixing bowl.2-3 large chicken breasts, 1 yellow bell pepper, 1 orange bell pepper, 1 red bell pepper, 1 green bell pepper, 1 large yellow onion
- Drizzle the olive oil evenly out over top, followed by the seasoning. Stir together until coated evenly.2 1/2 - 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 1.27 oz pkt dry fajita seasoning
- Spread the mixture out in a single layer in the basket of an air fryer, without over crowding.
- Air fry at 390° for 12-14 minutes. Repeat in a second batch, if needed.
- Serve warm with flour tortillas, and enjoy!
Notes
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer. You want there to be some space between the food so the air can circulate.
- You can use a homemade blend of taco or fajita seasonings if you prefer.
- To make prep super easy, you can buy pre cut fajita veggies in the fresh produce section of some grocery stores. I would buy about 20 ounces of veggies (often 2 containers) to substitute to for the peppers and onion.
