This chicken fajita sheet pan dinner is warm, colorful, and perfect for busy nights. Juicy chicken, tender peppers, and onions roast together for bold flavor with almost no cleanup. Everything comes together fast and feels cozy and satisfying.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 3 bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Add sliced chicken, bell peppers, and onion to the pan.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper evenly over everything.
  4. Toss well to coat, then spread into an even layer.
  5. Roast for 20-22 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
  6. Remove from oven and drizzle with fresh lime juice before serving.

Tip: Slice the vegetables evenly so everything cooks at the same speed and stays juicy, not dry.

Serve straight from the pan with warm tortillas or over rice, and save this one for your easy dinner rotation.
