Recipe Note

Air fry your chicken fajitas for a quick and tasty south-of-the-border meal. The vegetables and chicken can cook at the same time, in only 10 minutes! Customize your fajitas with the toppings you love, such as: shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, cilantro, sliced tomatoes, or tomato salsa. Serve alone as a light lunch, or with Spanish rice and refried beans for a more substantial meal.
