I hope you’re ready for another sheet pan recipe. I’m soon to become the sheet pan queen. LOL, I’m just kidding…or am I? I’m a huge fan of one pan meals. Not only for the easy cleanup but how simple they are to put together. Throw everything onto a sheet pan and you’ve got a complete meal ready in less than 30 minutes. I’m already thinking of my next sheet pan dinner.
We posted the recipe for our Sheet Pan Mini Meatloaves with Potatoes & Green Beans and it’s quickly becoming the most popular recipe on the site. You guys are LOVING it. I mean how could you resist those mini meatloaves stuffed with sharp white cheddar?!
These days I’m running in one hundred different directions and when it comes to dinner time, I’m struggling to throw something together. I’m not even ashamed to admit I might have run through the drive thru a time or two last week, for the kids. In my defense, I was super sick, not only with strep but I must have gotten food poisoning when I went out to dinner with my mom. Figures, just as I start to eat again, I get ill. I.was.not.well.
As soon as I was feeling better and decided to make dinner, I choose these Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas. Fast, simple, delicious and one pan cleanup, sounds like my kind of dinner. And Mexican food happens to be our favorite so these are a winner all around.
We always have bell peppers on hand. My daughter eats them like candy, no joke. I can’t make this stuff up. I am not sure how I got so lucky with the second child eating everything and being so brave to try something for the first time. We’re still working on the first child, one food at a time.
We also always have chicken and tortillas on hand; both corn and flour. I’m more of a corn tortilla girl, while the family prefers flour. I always char the tortillas a little bit over the flame of our gas stove. I’m also the girl who likes her chicken charred, so do what you’d like with the tortillas. Whichever you like choose will work great here. We load our Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas with cheese, avocado, tomatoes and cilantro. Again, feel free to add whatever you like to these.
If you’re not in the mood to put your culinary thinking cap on, then these Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas are perfect for you. They’re easy, delicious and there isn’t a crumb left, so don’t count on leftovers.

I love fajitas but I don’t cook chicken. I am thinking of substituting chicken with Portobello mushrooms. Do you think it would still taste good?
Megan Marlowe says
Yes, but I wouldn’t cook the mushrooms as long as the chicken.
