Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas
 
 
This meal can fit a THM:S, E, or FP setting depending on what toppings you use! It's easy to switch it up to fit your allergy needs, too. If you're allergic to something in low-carb tortillas, just eat the meat and veggies on a salad with salsa and sour cream as a dressing! Dairy free? Use coconut oil to fry the meat and omit the dairy toppings.

Ingredients
  • 2½ lb. chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 lg. onion, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 8 oz. mushrooms, sliced
  • ¼ c. fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 3 fresh garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 T. salted butter (melted)*
  • 1½ tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. each chili powder, cumin, paprika
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
  • -
  • Low-carb tortillas
  • -
THM:FP (low carb/low fat) topping options:
  • Low-fat sour cream
  • Small amount of part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • Sliced jalapenos
  • Salsa
THM:S (low carb) topping options:
  • Any of the above
  • Full fat sour cream
  • Plenty of cheese
  • Guacamole
  • Natural peanut butter, if you're like my dad
Instructions
  1. Spread the chicken, onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms on a sheet pan (with sides to hold the juices). Sprinkle with the cilantro, minced garlic, and seasonings, and pour the butter on top. Stir to coat. Bake at 350* for 25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  2. Serve with low-carb tortillas and your choice of toppings. Depending what toppings you use, this meal can be a THM:S or FP. If you choose the FP option, you could add a carb source to make an E meal.
Notes
*This amount of fat stays well within THM:FP guidelines. Go light on any additional fats.
When buying low-carb tortillas, look for a brand with 6g net carbs or fewer. I've used many different brands and usually just buy whatever my local discount grocery store happens to be carrying.
