Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
  • 3 large bell peppers (any color), sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 whole lime, juiced
  • 8 small flour tortillas, warmed

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large rimmed baking sheet with non-stick spray.

  2. 2

    Place the sliced chicken, bell peppers, and onions directly onto the sheet pan.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the oil and spice mixture over the chicken and vegetables, tossing thoroughly with your hands or tongs to coat evenly.

  5. 5

    Spread the mixture out into a single layer, ensuring the chicken pieces are not crowded for better browning.

  6. 6

    Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and immediately squeeze the fresh lime juice over the entire pan.

  8. 8

    Serve hot with warmed tortillas and your favorite toppings like sour cream, cilantro, or avocado.
