Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts thinly sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 2 bell peppers vibrant, cored and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or sea salt)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder

Fajita Toppings

  • fresh salsa
  • lime wedges
  • light sour cream
  • avocado slices
  • warm corn or whole wheat tortillas

Instructions
 

  • Get your air fryer ready! Hit the preheat button on your air fryer while you quickly prepare your chicken and fresh veggies. In a big mixing bowl, toss together the chicken strips, colorful bell peppers, sliced onion, and all the delicious spices until everything is evenly coated.
  • Carefully pour the seasoned mixture into your air fryer basket, spreading it out into a single layer so it cooks perfectly. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes, making sure to give the basket a good shake halfway through. While they cook, get your healthy toppings and warm tortillas ready!
  • After 10 minutes, your thinly sliced chicken should be beautifully cooked through! If you like extra crispiness or more browning on your chicken and veggies, feel free to add a few more minutes. Remember, cooking times can vary slightly depending on your air fryer model and how full the basket is.
  • Serve your piping hot fajitas immediately with warm corn or whole wheat tortillas. Top with your go-to healthy choices like fresh pico de gallo, a sprinkle of cilantro, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, or even some light sour cream and sliced avocado for a delicious, healthy meal!

Notes

Feel free to customize your fajita toppings. Remember, cooking times can vary slightly depending on your air fryer model and how full the basket is.
