Time 59m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

cooking spray
2 red bell peppers, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1 (1 ounce) package fajita seasoning mix, divided
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
½ cup sour cream, or to taste
½ cup salsa, or to taste
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Spread red bell peppers and onion in the baking dish.
  • Coat chicken strips with a few pinches of the fajita seasoning mix. Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir seasoned chicken until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Place chicken in the baking dish with bell peppers and onion; top with remaining fajita seasoning mix and vegetable oil. Stir until chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, stirring halfway through baking, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes.
  • Spoon chicken mixture into each tortilla and top with sour cream, salsa, and cilantro.
