Fajita Wrap
This fajita wrap will blow your mind with flavor. The fajitas are made on a sheet pan, come together seamless and taste amazing wrapped up in a toasted tortilla. Nothing can come close in flavor to a handheld fajita wrap.
Servings: 4
Equipment
- large sheet pan
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs chicken breast boneless, skinless
- ¼ cup fajita seasoning *see notes to make your own
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 red or orange bell pepper *see notes
- 1 small jalapeño, seeded and diced optional
- 1 green bell pepper
- 4 garlic cloves minced/chopped
- 4 burrito size tortillas
- 1 cup refried beans
- 1 cup cooked rice
- ¼ cup salsa
- ½ cup shredded cheese *more to taste
Instructions
- Slice chicken into 1 inch cubes, try to keep them close to similar size for an even cook. In a large bowl make a marinade using the fajita seasoning, garlic, olive oil and lime juice. Add the chicken and mix well. Don't turn the oven on just yet, we want to give the chicken a light marinade.
- Add onion, jalapeños and bell peppers to chicken and toss together with the marinade. Allow it to sit for a bit while you preheat the oven. Preheat the oven to 375º. Start the rice and cook according to the package.
- Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture onto a rimmed sheet pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until meat is cooked through. If you want to add some char to meat and veggies, broil for another 3 minutes (I recommend this!).
- Heat a pan or cast iron skillet on medium/high heat. Working quickly, smear beans, sprinkle rice, fajita mix, salsa and cheese on the middle of the tortilla. Wrap the tortilla like a burrito tucking in both end and folding in.
- Place the wrap in the skillet with the seam side down, this will melt the cheese and seal the wrap. Let it cook untouched for about 3 minutes and flip the wrap. Cook for another 3 minutes or until it's browned to your liking. Take off the heat and move to the next wrap until you have them all made.
- Slice in the center and serve!
Notes
*fajita/taco seasoning, buy packaged or make your own with: 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp salt & pepper.
*any color bell pepper will work. I like to choose two colors for vibrancy.
