Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken breasts boneless and skinless, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ yellow bell pepper sliced
  • ½ green bell pepper sliced
  • ½ red bell pepper sliced
  • ½ red onion sliced
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer. Preheat to 380°F for 3–5 minutes.
  • Slice the chicken and vegetables. Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips. Slice the bell peppers and red onion into strips.
  • Season everything. In a large bowl, whisk the avocado oil, fajita seasoning, and salt. Add the chicken and vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
  • Arrange in a single layer. Spread the chicken and vegetables in the basket in one even layer for the best char.
  • Air fry and shake. Cook at 380°F (190°C) for 11 minutes. Remove and shake or turn with tongs. Return and cook 11 more minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F and the vegetables are tender with charred edges.
  • Serve. Serve immediately with warm tortillas and your favorite toppings.
