Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas

Super easy and flavorful chicken fajitas made quickly in the Air Fryer! The chicken is succulent and bursting with flavor and the peppers and onions are crunchy and delicious. A great dinner for busy mid-week nights!

These Air Fryer fajitas are low-carb, keto, paleo, low-fat, and whole30 compliant.

I probably have tried making fajitas using all methods possible. I mean, I have Instant Pot fajitas, baked chicken fajitas, cheesy chicken fajita casserole, vegan fajitas, and even fajita rice and homemade fajita seasoning. So I figured that it was time to share my Air Fryer fajitas recipe with you.

Making fajitas in the Air Fryer is very convenient and easy, I make these chicken fajitas all the time, as well as my favorite Air Fryer shrimp fajitas. When you cook your food in an Air Fryer, it means that you won’t need to reheat the whole thing like a massive oven. The food cooks quicker, and crisps quicker than compared to an oven.

And my favorite part? Not much washing up to do afterward!

Another Air Fryer dinner that we love is this simple Air Fryer chicken and potatoes, it’s SO good! So make sure to check it out.

Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas

Ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts boneless and skinless cut into strips (around 1 pound/450g)
• 1 red bell pepper sliced into ½ inch slices
• 1 yellow bell pepper sliced into ½ inch slices
• 1 green bell pepper sliced into ½ inch slices
• 1 red onion sliced into wedges
• 3 tablespoons fajita seasoning
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions

• Preheat the Air Fryer to 390°F (200°C).
• Drizzle oil over the chicken strips, and season with the fajita seasoning. Toss well and make sure that they're evenly coated with the seasoning. Add the veggies, and season well. Make sure that everything is well coated in fajita seasoning.
• Put everything in an Air Fryer basket. Air Fry at for 15 minutes, tossing halfway through.
• Serve with warmed tortillas, pico de gallo, avocado slices or guacamole.

Notes

1. These Air Fryer fajitas are low carb, keto, paleo, low fat, and whole30 compliant.
2. The fajitas are 100% gluten-free if you’re using a GT tortilla bread.
3. Make sure not to overcrowd your Air Fryer basket. If you put layers and layers of chicken and veg, and the basket is overly filled then the food will “steam” rather than “roast” and char.
