I love chicken fajitas and on busy weeknights I need a dinner that is quick to put together. I chopped the vegetables over and coated the chicken in spices over the weekend so all I had to do was turn on the oven and broil. Then we topped our fajitas with our favorite toppings: cheese, salsa, guacamole, and plain nonfat Greek yogurt.
Spray a 9×13 dish with olive oil spray. Spread out the vegetables in the dish. Spray with olive oil spray. Sprinkle ½ tablespoon chili powder, half of lime zest, and half of lime juice over the vegetables.
Place chicken in a dish or sealable bag coat with 1 tablespoon olive oil and ½ tablespoon chili powder.
When ready to serve broil vegetables on high for 10 minutes. Stir vegetables.
Spread chicken over the vegetables. Broil on high for another 10 minutes. If chicken isn’t cooked through stir the chicken and vegetables and broil another 5 minutes.
