How to Make Trader Joe's Chili Lime Chicken Fajitas
- Start by simply mixing the chili lime seasoning with oil. Spread the chicken, peppers, and onions across a large sheet pan. I use this extra large sheet pan to make sure there's enough room for all ingredients to spread out and cook evenly.
- Season with salt & pepper, then toss the chicken, peppers and onions with the chili lime fajita marinade.
- After baking, a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro across the top of the fajitas is the perfect finishing touch to this delicious flavor combination.
Storage & Meal Prep
Store leftover fajitas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave.
Prep the ingredients in advance to make this easy meal even quicker! To save time, cut the chicken and veggies ahead, then store in ziploc bags, or any other airtight container, in the fridge until ready to bake. There's no marinating time needed, so you can have this dinner on the table in no time!
These fajitas are perfect for meal prep lunches and taste just as good the next day.
How to Serve Chicken Fajitas
These chili lime chicken fajitas are incredibly versatile and customizable for any dietary needs or preferences:
- Serve in gluten free flour tortillas for classic fajitas
- Add to a rice bowl
- Spoon over lettuce wraps or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option
- Use leftovers in salads, wraps, or quesadillas
Switch up the chicken for steak or shrimp, or go meatless by filling up the whole sheet pan with your favorite veggies. The flavor is in the seasoning, and it is literally so yummy on any of these options!
Whether you need a quick weeknight meal, or are cooking for a crowd, be sure to save this recipe for your next homemade fiesta! With simple ingredients and endless serving options, this is the kind of recipe you'll come back to again and again.
