Oven Baked Fajita Tacos (Gluten Free)

Kayla Cappiello
I love ordering in Mexican food because it is so easy to make naturally gluten free with corn tortillas. But, l'm always debating do I want tacos that are made for me, or fajitas that are fun to make myself. In these Fajita Tacos, I don't need to choose because it combines both dishes!! It has all the delicious flavors or classic fajitas, but all set up for you in tasty taco form. Plus, they only take 30 minutes to make, which is way faster than delivery!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 white onion thinly sliced
  • 2 bell peppers any color, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fajita seasoning
  • 8 corn tortillas gluten free
  • 1/2 cup Low fat shredded cheddar cheese or dairy free sub

Optional Protein:

  • 1 pound chicken breasts
  • 6 oz steak

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Add the sliced onions and sliced peppers.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and fajita seasoning.
  • If using chicken or steak, season with fajita seasoning and add to sheet pan (optional)
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Check that the meat is fully cooked before removing.
  • Place a corn tortilla on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Top with a generous amount of the cooked vegetables and protein (if using).
  • Sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Fold the tortilla in half and place it on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Pro tip: If tortillas are dry and risk cracking, add to oven for 1-2 minutes, then remove and fold in half. After the 1 minutes they will be softer and easier to fold.
  • Bake for 5-8 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
