Make delicious Sheet-Pan Fajitas with almost no cleanup. This recipe delivers bold flavor and tender steak using just one pan for simple weeknight cooking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs skirt steak, sliced against the grain
  • 3 large bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • For serving: Tortillas, salsa, sour cream, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced steak, bell peppers, and onion.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. This is your seasoning blend.
  4. Pour the seasoning mixture over the steak and vegetables. Toss everything together until the meat and produce are evenly coated.
  5. Spread the seasoned steak and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to ensure everything roasts, not steams.
  6. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the steak is cooked to your liking and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  7. Serve immediately with warm tortillas, salsa, sour cream, and fresh lime wedges.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can marinate the steak mixture for 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you prefer chicken, substitute the skirt steak with 1.5 lbs of sliced chicken breast or thighs. Adjust the cooking time if needed.
  • Ensure the vegetables and meat are in a single layer; this step is key for proper searing and prevents sogginess.
