Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

 Chicken Fajitas are a favorite food with Team Aimone - we've been making these Oven Baked Fajitas for years! I stumbled upon this recipe awhile back, and it quickly became a staple in my weekly meal planning. We all know how much Momma Aimone loves a good sheet pan recipe, mainly because there is so little clean up after - and this one does not disappoint. I hope you enjoy!
