A quick and easy sheet pan fajita recipe featuring zesty Tajin seasoning, tender chicken, roasted veggies, and creamy melted feta. Perfect for fuss-free weeknight dinners packed with bold flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) chicken breast or thighs, sliced thinly
  • 2 medium bell peppers (any color), sliced into strips
  • 1 medium red onion, sliced thinly
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 2 tablespoons Tajin seasoning
  • 4 ounces (115g) feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh cilantro or sliced avocado for garnish
  • Optional: warm tortillas for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Slice the chicken breast or thighs into thin strips about 1/2 inch wide. Slice bell peppers into strips, thinly slice the red onion, and cut zucchini into half-moons about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the chicken and veggies with olive oil, Tajin seasoning, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly across a large rimmed sheet pan in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  5. Roast on the middle rack for 20-25 minutes, flipping the chicken and stirring the veggies halfway through (about 12 minutes in) for even browning.
  6. Five minutes before the end of cooking, sprinkle the crumbled feta evenly over the top and continue roasting.
  7. Remove from the oven and squeeze fresh lime juice over the entire pan.
  8. Serve immediately on warm tortillas or over rice, garnished with fresh cilantro or sliced avocado if desired.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming instead of roasting. Add feta cheese in the last 5 minutes to keep it creamy and prevent it from drying out. Flip halfway through roasting for even caramelization. For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken with portobello mushrooms or chickpeas and use vegan feta or omit cheese. Leftovers keep well for up to 3 days in the fridge; reheat gently in a skillet or oven and add fresh lime juice before serving.
