  • cooking spray
  • 2 red bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
  • 1 (1 ounce) package fajita seasoning mix, divided

  • 8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup sour cream, or to taste
  • 1/2 cup salsa, or to taste

  2. Spread red bell peppers and onion in the baking dish.

  4. Place chicken in the baking dish with bell peppers and onion; top with remaining fajita seasoning mix and vegetable oil. Stir until chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven, stirring halfway through baking, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes.
  6. Spoon chicken mixture into each tortilla and top with sour cream, salsa, and cilantro.
