This is a recipe I found recently on my newest obsession, Pinterest. I modified it a little; adding more garlic powder, cumin and chili powder than what the recipe calls for (I didn't think teaspoons were enough for my tastes - thankfully, I was right), and omitting the salt it called for as I don't add salt to anything I cook. Also, I added an extra bell pepper, because they are one of my favorite veggies. Also, I added half a can of sweet corn, which the original recipe didn't call for. (You can find the original recipe here: http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2012/01/baked-chicken-fajitas-recipe.html) Just FYI, the nutrional info has 8 low carb whole wheat tortillas added to it (to equal out to 1 tortilla per serving), however you could also serve this on its own, or over some long-grain, brown rice...I bet it would be delicious. Also, I personally did not use sour cream (mostly because I didn't have any when I made this!) but if you used Fat Free Sour Cream, it wouldn't add too much to the recipe. If you omitted cheese as well, you could reduce the fat and calories of this meal further...however, in my world, there's no such thing as no dairy with dinner ;)

How Do I Make Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas?

Here is how you make Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas:

Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 13x9 baking dish or pan (Or, just line it with aluminum foil). In the pan, mix together chicken (yes, raw. It will cook with the rest of the food, eliminating the worry for illness) onion, peppers, tomatoes, corn and chilies. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the spices to create a "sauce." You may need to adjust the olive oil depending on how much spice you use. I ended up added a little water to the bowl because my combination had created more of a paste. However, the tomatoes and chilies add a decent amount of liquid to the pan, so I probably shouldn't have done this. Drizzle this sauce over the ingredients in the pan, and mix to coat well.Bake in the oven, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and your veggies are tender. You may want to mix things around in the pan halfway through cooking. A few minutes before the fajitas are finished, sprinkle the top of the mixture with half a cup of shredded cheese, if you wish. Serve in a low carb whole wheat tortilla, and enjoy!Serving Size:?Fills about eight medium sized low carb whole wheat tortillas
