I made this for a potluck, and people couldn’t stop chatting about it.

Fajitas, a beloved dish with roots in Tex-Mex cuisine, are known for their vibrant flavors and sizzling presentation. This low-carb fajita chicken bake brings all the classic elements together in a convenient, oven-baked format. Perfect for those looking to reduce carbohydrates without sacrificing taste, this dish combines tender chicken, colorful bell peppers, and a gooey layer of melted cheese. The result is a delightful combination of crispy, gooey, and melty textures that will satisfy your cravings while keeping things light.

This low-carb fajita chicken bake pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad or a side of cauliflower rice to keep the meal low in carbohydrates. For a bit of added crunch, consider serving it with some sliced avocado or a dollop of sour cream. If you’re not strictly low-carb, a side of warm tortillas or a scoop of Mexican-style rice would complement the dish nicely.
