Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas
Air Fryer Chicken Fajitas are tender chicken strips, bell peppers, and onions, seasoned with fajita spices and cooked quickly in an air fryer. This might be your new favorite way to make fajitas! Seriously, I have been using this method the past few times I have made fajitas, and it is a no-fail (and delicious) way to enjoy them!
