Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas

Anyone who knows me, knows I am a sucker for Mexican food. So, when I was prepping for the week I wanted something different with a twist. Chicken fajitas are always a go to, but a baked chicken fajita?!?!!! It is baking in the oven now as we speak.

Ingredients:

- 1 pound of boneless chicken; cut into strips
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes - no salt added
- 1 small can of diced green chiles
- 1 medium onion; sliced
- 1 large bell pepper (red, green, yellow)

Directions:

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice the veggies and chicken in strips.
- Place chicken strips in greased 13 x 9 baking dish.
- In a small bowl combine oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt.
- Drizzle the spice mixture over the chicken and stir to coat.
- Mixed diced tomatoes and green chile in bowl. You can also buy a diced can of tomatoes with green chiles already added.
- Next add the tomatoes, peppers, and onions to the dish and stir to combine.
- Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- Serve with tortilla  shells or rice with desired toppings.
