What’s in Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas?

Ths ingredients are super simple and easy. Grab some of your favorite veggies from the store, along with some chicken, and you will be just about ready to go! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

Chicken Breast: Cut these up into sized that are the same so that they cook evenly. Vegetables: Red, yellow, green peppers and an onion all sliced to the same size. Olive Oil: Drizzle this on top so that the seasoning sticks! Seasoning: You can use this super easy homemade fajita seasoning or you can use the store-bought kind that you love! Tortillas: Make some flour tortillas or buy some at the store to serve with these delicious chicken and veggies.

How to Cook Chicken Fajitas in the Air Fryer

If you have 20 minutes, then you have time to make these fajitas! I love any meal that is delicious and easy (who doesn’t??) so this recipe is a win in my book!

Cut: To start, cut the chicken breast into thin slices. Add it to a medium-sized bowl with bell peppers and onion.Toss and Coat: Add in the olive oil and fajita seasoning and toss to coat.Cook: Add it to the basket of your air fryer. Cook at 390 degrees for 10 minutes or until cooked throughout and no longer pink. Serve with homemade tortillas if desired.

Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: If you put too much food on top of one another in the air fryer then it won’t cook evenly! It will “steam” rather than bake your food and you will never get that delicious, charred edge on your meat. It’s better to do a few smaller batches (if you have a smaller air fryer) than try to crowd everything in at once. Make sure that you just have one layer on the bottom of the basket.Preheat: This step isn’t necessary but I like to do it so that my cooking time is perfect. If your air fryer has a preheat button then go ahead and use that. If it doesn’t, then while you are preparing your food, turn the air fryer on to 390 degrees fro about 3-4 minutes. Then, by the time you add your food in, the air fryer is all ready to go!

Protein: If you are not a fan of chicken, try some steak instead! It’s super delicious and I love cooking steak bites in the air fryer. Veggies: This is where the possibilies are endless! Try adding in some purple onion, a few mushrooms or you can even add or take out certain bell peppers. I love orange bell peppers in this too! Toppings: Try topping your fajitas with some guacamole, salsa or sour cream. You can even switch out the flour tortilla for a corn tortilla if you are gluten free!

Storage: Once your fajitas have cooled off then place it in an airtight container in your fridge. It will last 3-5 days! Reheat: Put the leftover chicken fajitas in the air fryer and set it to 350 degrees. Cook for 3-5 minutes until it is heated through.
