Oven Chicken Fajitas


Todd loved these, they have a little bit of a kick, but not so bad I couldn't stomach them.
 We will definitely make these again, for Todd, some time! 




SEASONING
1 Tbsp chili powder 
½ Tbsp paprika 
½ tsp onion powder
¼ tsp garlic powder 
¼ tsp cumin
⅛ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp sugar
½ tsp salt 
1 Tbsp corn starch 

FAJITAS
2 small (or 1 lg.) onion
2 medium green bell peppers 
1 medium red bell pepper (I didn't have red bell pepper so I used the peelings from a few large carrots)
1 lb. chicken breast
2 Tbsp vegetable oil 

lime 
tortillas 
sour cream (optional)
bunch cilantro (optional) 

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Mix all of the ingredients for the seasoning in a small bowl and set aside
 
Cut the onion and bell peppers into ¼ to ½ inch wide strips. Place them in a large 9×13 inch casserole dish. Slice the chicken breast into similarly thin strips and add the strips to the casserole dish with the vegetables.
Sprinkle the seasoning over the meat and vegetables. Drizzle the vegetable oil over everything and then mix the ingredients until everything is well coated in oil and seasoning. (this was kind of a pain, when we do this again I might just place everything in either a mixing bowl or a big ziplock bag first)
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, stirring once or twice. If you like lime squeeze the juice from half of the lime over top of the meat and vegetables after it comes out of the oven.
