How to Make Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas Step by Step

Prep the Meat: Preheat your air fryer to 375 °F and spray the basket with cooking spray. In a bowl, mix together 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into strips, 1½ tablespoons of fajita seasoning, ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper, ½ teaspoon of kosher salt, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, 1 medium sliced red onion, and 3 medium bell peppers sliced into strips, coating the chicken, peppers and onion well with the spices. Cook the Meat: Add the chicken mixture in a single layer to the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 mins, mixing halfway through the cooking. Serve hot with lightly toasted/warm tortillas and other garnish of choice.
