Simple 21 Day Fix Approved Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas

When I find a recipe I like, the first thing I like to do is make it easier. I mean, who has the time for a 30 ingredient list?! Seriously. What I mostly do is cut down on any unnecessary spices that won’t affect the overall flavor, do away with any unhealthy oils, and/or replace any white carbs with whole grain carbs or vegetables.

One of my favorite simple meals to make is oven baked chicken fajitas. Mmmmm….so good!!!

And making chicken fajitas in the oven significantly reduces your active cooking time, because you don’t need to stand over them while sauteing. Instead, you just place all the ingredients in the a casserole dish with some oil and bake.

Super easy to make, the chicken always remains moist, and the onions and peppers come a perfect al dente texture – not mushy or burnt. The best part is that this recipe is approved to eat while following almost all Beachbody workout programs including the 21 Day Fix, 80 Day Obsession, and the ultra flexible 2B Mindset eating plan.

The best part about oven baked chicken fajitas may not just be how easy they are to make, but how many different options there are when it comes to serving them! There are so many delicious and healthy ways to eat your chicken fajitas that you will never get bored! Here are some of my favorites:

Depending on your diet, you can serve them on:

• Salsa
• Finely chopped jalapenos, jarred or fresh (don’t forget to remove seeds if you’re not a heat-lover!)
