  • Spread evenly across the air fryer basket and air fry for 10 minutes at 200°C (390F) making sure to give a toss half way through. (do check the chicken is at least 72°C/162°F before serving)!

Notes

Step-by-Step Photos: My blog post includes helpful step-by-step photos to help guide you through making this recipe.
Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.
To Store: Store leftover chicken fajitas in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat in a pan, microwave, or air fryer.
To Freeze: Freeze in an airtight container for up to 9 months. Thaw in the fridge and then reheat in the microwave, air fryer, or on the stove.
Tip 1: Your cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and the size of your chicken strips. Thin strips will cook faster while thicker strips will take longer.
Tip 2: This is a great meal prep meal! You can make a larger batch ahead of time and then refrigerate or freeze it depending on when you plan to enjoy it.
Tip 3: For best results, make sure you lay all ingredients in an even layer so the hot air can get to everything evenly.
