Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips

2 bell peppers (red and yellow), sliced

1 large red onion, sliced

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Juice of 1 lime

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: tortillas, for serving

Optional: salsa, avocado, or cheese for toppings

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the sliced chicken, bell peppers, and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and add the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Toss everything together until the chicken and vegetables are well coated with the seasonings.

      Prepare the Foil Packs: Tear off four sheets of aluminum foil, about 12x12 inches each. Place an equal portion of the chicken and veggie mixture in the center of each foil sheet.

        Seal the Foil Packs: Fold the sides of the foil over the mixture and then fold the ends to tightly seal the packs, making sure there are no openings for steam to escape.

          Bake: Place the foil packs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

            Serve: Carefully open each foil pack (steam will escape) and serve directly from the foil or transfer to plates. Garnish with chopped cilantro and your choice of toppings such as tortillas, salsa, avocado, or cheese.

              Enjoy: Dive into your delicious, colorful baked chicken fajita foil packs!
