I love this air fryer fajita chicken recipe for many different reasons.

First, my entire family loves it!  Both adults and kids love fajita chicken. Because this one is served Hasselback style, the kids love it! They enjoy pulling out the peppers and onions from the slices of chicken.

Next, the air fryer makes recipes healthier than if you fried them the regular way, yet they don’t lose any flavor.  Your body is going to thank you for the less fat and calories.

I promise that you won’t miss the calories.

    So…the picture looks like 1 breast at a time. Is that the case? So you do this 4 times?

      It depends on how big your air fryer is. Mine is pretty small so I had to to one at a time. If you have a trivet you could do one on top of each other.
