Ingredients
1 pound chicken sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 large yellow onion, sliced into thin strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 small flour tortillas
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
1 lime, cut into wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine the sliced chicken sausage, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and yellow onion.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the spice and olive oil mixture over the sausage and vegetables. Toss well to evenly coat all the ingredients.
Spread the sausage and vegetable mixture in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred and the sausage is cooked through.
While the fajita mixture is roasting, warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or wrap them in foil and warm in the oven for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and squeeze fresh lime juice over the fajita mixture.
Serve the chicken sausage fajitas hot with warm tortillas, garnished with chopped cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
