This is the perfect weeknight recipe to make when you don’t want to wash a bunch of dishes or spend a lot of time thinking about what to cook. You simply preheat the oven, chop some vegetables, season the chicken, then pop it in the oven. For a smokier flavor, sub in (or add) a squeeze of our Chipotle Lime Mayo on top of the fajitas.

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Mix the spice blend together in a small bowl (or use a premade blend and skip this step).
In another bowl, toss the peppers and onions with 1 tablespoon of oil and about a third of the spice blend. Spread the veggies out on one side of a large sheet pan.
In the same bowl, add the chicken thighs and toss them in the remaining oil and spice blend. Lay the chicken out on the other side of the sheet pan.
Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for about 40-45 minutes, flipping the chicken and tossing the veggies once halfway through. Shred or chop your chicken after it cools slightly.
Portion out the ingredients for each person. Serve in lettuce cups or tortillas, drizzle with avocado lime dipping sauce or chipotle lime mayo, and enjoy!
