Instructions

Season and Roast

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment.
2. Toss chicken, peppers, and onions with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, and half the lime juice.
3. Spread in a single layer on the sheet pan. Don't overcrowd.
4. Roast 20 minutes until chicken is cooked and vegetables are slightly charred.
5. Squeeze remaining lime juice over the top.
6. Serve in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings.

Cook's Notes

💡 Use two sheet pans if needed — overcrowding steams instead of roasts.
💡 Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in the oven for the last 5 minutes.
💡 Steak works great too — slice thin against the grain.
