If you can fit your whole dinner on a single sheet pan, you are winning at LIFE.
For this sheet pan dinner, marinated strips of chicken and bell pepper and onions get tossed on a sheet pan and charred up in the oven for a totally satisfying fajita!
If you’re in a pinch and a marinade isn’t in the cards for you, you can use the same seasoning and toss everything together in olive oil to coat and proceed as usual.
Toss your charred up chicken and veggies in a tortilla and dinner is ready!
