- ✓2 medium bell peppers
- ✓1 medium red onion
- ✓30 ml olive oil
- ✓1 tsp smoked paprika
- ✓1 tsp ground cumin
- ✓0.5 tsp chili powder
- ✓0.5 tsp garlic powder

- ✓0.3 tsp ground black pepper
- ✓15 ml fresh lime juice

Anleitung
1
Cut the chicken breast into even 1/2-inch strips and slice the bell peppers and red onion into uniform strips so they cook evenly.
💡
Tipp:Consistent slicing thickness ensures both meat and vegetables finish cooking at the same time.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
💡
Tipp:Blending seasonings directly into the oil creates a wet rub that clings better to the ingredients.
3
Add the sliced chicken, peppers, and onions to the seasoned oil and toss thoroughly until every piece is evenly coated.
4
Preheat the air fryer to 200 C (199 °C) for 3 minutes.
💡
Tipp:A hot air fryer basket instantly Sears the chicken edges and prevents moisture loss.
5
Transfer the mixture into the air fryer basket in a single loose layer; cook in two consecutive batches if your air fryer basket is smaller than 4 liters.
💡
Tipp:Avoid overcrowding the basket to let air circulate properly and prevent steaming.
6
Cook at 200 C (199 °C) for 12 to 14 minutes, shaking the basket thoroughly at the halfway mark, until the chicken registers an internal temperature of 74 C (74 °C) and the pepper edges show light char.
💡
Tipp:Shaking halfway through redistributes the onions and peppers for balanced caramelization.
7
Drizzle the fresh lime juice over the sizzling fajita filling, toss lightly, and serve immediately in warm tortillas with your choice of salsa and guacamole.
📝 Tipps vom Chefkoch
Leftovers keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 180 C (350 F) for 3 to 4 minutes to restore crisp edges.
