I’m a fan of quick, easy and no fuss dinners. About 50% of the time, I’m really good at meal planning and setting our family up for success for dinners during the week. Unfortunately, some weeks, between activities and busy schedules, it doesn’t happen. When I do get that stroke of genius, we always have a spin on Taco Tuesday at our house. That may not always be tacos, but we’ll stay in the Mexican food family. One of my favorite and easiest dinners are sheet pan chicken fajitas.
I was introduced to the sheet pan fajitas a few months ago, and with my own spin, I’ve been able to make a quick and easy dinners for my family with the help of PERDUE® FRESH CUTS™ chicken. Now the thing I love about Perdue is that I am not the biggest fan of cutting chicken. I’m really OCD about making sure I have everything trimmed nicely, which then leads me to stressing out about contamination and keeping things safe. With Purdue, the dicing and slicing is done for you! Just open the package and toss it on the sheet pan. Why hasn’t this happened sooner? PERDUE® FRESH CUTS™ chicken saves me up to 30 minutes per meal with prep and clean up. Even more because we’re talking a one pan plan with these fajitas! All PERDUE ® chicken comes with a “No Antibiotics Ever” promise too. Something this mom can get behind, too!
So really all we are left to do is slice veggies with my Sous Chef of course. There is a great divide in our house about peppers and onions. I’m team onion while my husband is team pepper, and Hattie is team peppers and onions. I guess that’s a good thing! Bonus, we keep them separated between the chicken so no one can complain!
The other thing I started doing years ago was making my own homemade taco seasoning. It’s so much better and those little packets from the store aren’t always just spices. I like to quadruple my recipe and put it in a mason jar for future use. I can usually get about 5 or 6 meals with it. This dinner could not be easier. Just pop your entire sheet pan in the oven for 30 minutes and you have the yummiest dinner ever!
We usually serve our fajitas with a little cheese, sour cream and guacamole. I’m still always blown away with how sweet and soft the peppers and onions are with the contrast to the spices. Always so yummy. You can get $1 off your next PERDUE® purchase too!
