1. Cut chicken strips and vegetables in similar shaped strips. Don’t cut veggies too thin or they will burn.
2. Use a meat thermometer to check if chicken is done. The temperature should reach 165F for chicken to be cooked through.
3. I use a combination of peppers and onion along with chicken but you can add other veggies of choice too that take similar time in cooking. Mushrooms, green beans, carrots work well here.
4. I have used fajita seasoning but you can use any seasoning of choice. If you don’t have a ready seasoning mix, make your own. 1 tbsp. each chili powder, ground cumin and garlic powder; 1 tsp. each onion powder, cayenne, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and ½ tsp. pepper. Mix together and use 3 tbsp. in the recipe.
5. I use chicken breast strips but you can use boneless leg strips as well.
6. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer or your fajitas may end up being steamed instead of roasted.
7. The air frying time will vary a bit depending upon the size of your chicken strips and the model of your air fryer.
