Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas [Recipe with Video] (2024)

Try these quick and easy Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas the next time you have a busy day ahead. They are simple to fix with just a handful of ingredients, plus super kid-friendly, too!

This is one of my favorite quick and easy meals to make, especially as we’re heading into summer and we’re less into soups and stews.

I’ll often whip up a double batch while I’m at it, then stash half in the freezer. That way I can thank myself on a later, seriously busy day.

Please note: Nutrition calculation is for the seasoned chicken and vegetable filling ONLY – no toppings, wraps etc included; as those will be highly individual.

Recipe tips

I don’t mind using the marinade in the oven, as it cooks completely through. If you feel uncomfortable, feel free to remove the chicken and vegetables from the marinade, discard it, and then use a fresh package of Fajita seasoning and fresh olive oil on the chicken and veggies to bake.

Feel free to add other vegetables you enjoy and that cook fairly quickly in the oven – zucchini, mushrooms or shaved corn would all work well.

Homemade fajita seasoning:

• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ground black pepper, to taste
• Cayenne pepper, to taste

Leftovers and freezer instructions

Leftovers keep well covered in the fridge for up to 2 days.

You can prepare the chicken and vegetable mix in the zip-loc bag as instructed in the recipe. Instead of marinating in the fridge, label with the name and date and freeze for up to 3 months.

Defrost in the fridge overnight. Then bake as instructed in the recipe.

Serving ideas

We serve this buffet style – I’ll line up the chicken and veggie filling, warmed tortillas, shredded salad, guacamole, salsa, sour cream, cheese… Anything and everything 😉 on the kitchen counter and we all assemble our own dinner. Easier for me, and the kids think it’s the best dinner ever.
