Oven Baked Chicken (Or Pork) Fajitas image

Another awesome Pinterest find! Instead of using the mentioned spices, I just added a packet of fajita seasoning. The original recipe calls for chicken, but I used pork and it was still good (I haven't tried beef because I'm afraid it would get tough). I couldn't tell the difference between these and skillet fajitas. I served them with whole-wheat tortillas, low-fat sour cream, salsa, black beans, corn and cooked brown rice. Enjoy!

These fajitas are a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the chicken and pork, and they don't even notice the vegetables.

These fajitas are a great way to use up leftover chicken or pork. I always have some leftover chicken in my fridge, so this is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but I really enjoyed these fajitas. The pork was cooked perfectly and it wasn't dry at all.
