Tips for Making Sheet Pan Fajitas:

It is best to use a large mixing bowl and combine the ingredients into the bowl, then add olive oil and taco seasoning to mix or stir the ingredients together. This can also be done in a Ziploc bag, where the bag is sealed nd the ingredients are shaken together to fully coat with seasoning.

Once the ingredients are fully mixed, pour them out on a prepared sheet pan or baking sheet. This will then be baked in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F for 20 minute so or until the chicken reaches and internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F. This can easily be checked with a meat thermometer.

Once the cooking time is complete, serve the fajitas in a warm tortilla.

Do you have to use chicken thighs?

Chicken Thighs are preferred as they do not dry out and are juicy; however, you can also use chicken breasts or chicken tenders. The chicken thighs will be cut into strips.

Alternative Protein Optionals for Sheet Pan Fajitas:

We prefer to use chicken for this, but you can also make these shrimp fajitas or add shrimp to this when baking to make it a combination of shrimp and chicken.
