Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

2 mins

Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the bottom of a 10x14 glass dish. Add chicken strips. (2 minutes)

03

Step

5 mins

In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic granules, chili powder, oregano, and cumin. Rub the mixture thoroughly over the chicken. (5 minutes)

04

Step

5 mins

Add diced tomatoes, onion, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and chopped green chiles to the dish. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients. Sprinkle evenly with seasoned salt. (5 minutes)

05

Step

30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (30 minutes)

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the spice mixture for at least 30 minutes before baking.
Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder and green chiles to control the level of spiciness.
If you don't have a 10x14 dish, a similar-sized baking sheet will work.
To broil the chicken fajitas, broil for the last 3-5 minutes to get a nice char on top.
