Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chiles, drained
1 medium onion, cut into thin strips
1 medium green pepper, cut into thin strips
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into thin strips
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
Optional toppings: Sliced avocado, tomato wedges and lime wedges

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Combine the chicken, tomatoes, onion and peppers in a 13x9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Editor's Tip: You can also use a sheet pan to make baked chicken fajitas.

In a small bowl, stir together the oil, chili powder, cumin and salt.

Drizzle the seasoned oil over the chicken mixture. Using a spatula or your hands, toss to coat.

Bake, uncovered, for 20 to 25 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender. Editor's Tip: About halfway through, toss the chicken and vegetables around in the pan so all sides get caramelized.

Spoon the chicken and vegetables onto tortillas, and fold or roll them up. Serve with toppings as desired.
