Ingredients
Scale
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or lemon pepper
- 1 to 1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips
- 3 bell peppers (orange, yellow, and/or red), cut into strips
- 1 medium-large sweet yellow onion (like a vidalia onion), sliced into strips
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 12–16 small flour tortillas (5- to 6-inches) or corn tortillas
- optional for serving: guacamole or mashed avocado, fresh cilantro, lime wedges, sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425℉, placing an extra large sheet pan on the middle rack to heat.
- In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper together.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken, bell pepper, and onion strips. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle the spice mix; toss well to coat everything evenly.
- Once the oven is heated, carefully remove the hot sheet pan(s) using an oven mitt and mist with nonstick spray.
- Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables evenly on the hot sheet pan. The ingredients will sizzle upon contact. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
- Wrap the tortillas in foil and add them to the oven for the last 5 minutes of cooking to warm them up.
- Serve the chicken and vegetables in tortillas and top with your choice of guacamole, fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and/or sour cream.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
