Jalapenos, red pepper flakes, and horseradish all have a kick to them, but don’t worry—your mouth won’t get burned! These are the ideal savory-sweet snack because of the cream cheese and sweet apricot that calm them down. They also don’t contain gluten!

Ingredients
- 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
- 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
- 1 large onion, sliced into petals
- 3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pound chicken tenders, cut into strips
- 2 teaspoons fajita seasoning
- 8 (6 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
Instructions
- Place bell pepper strips and onion petals in a large bowl. Drizzle 2 teaspoons of olive oil over top and season with salt and pepper. Stir until evenly combined.
- Place chicken strips in a separate bowl and sprinkle with fajita seasoning. Drizzle with remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and mix until evenly combined with your hands.
- Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Add chicken to the basket and cook for 12 minutes, shaking halfway through cook time. Transfer to a plate to let rest while you cook the vegetables.
- Add vegetable mixture to the basket of the air fryer and cook for 14 minutes, shaking halfway through cook time.
- Divide chicken and vegetable mixture among tortillas.
- I like to toast my tortillas in the air fryer as well, but it is not necessary.

Reviews
Made it in one pan, veggies on the bottom & layered thin strips of chicken on top, took approximately 25 mins for all the chicken to cook. It was darn good. Forgot to take a picture.
Cooked both together with veggies on bottom and chicken on top. Came out perfect.
I added all the ingredients in a bowl, stirred and then cooked in the air fryer. It was great. Better than taking time to cook two batches.
Perfect fajitas, no mess. The chicken was at 165°F exactly at 12 minutes, tender and juicy. Instead of cooking in two batches, I put the veggies on bottom, layered the chicken on top and cooked for 12 minutes. Everything was cooked to perfection.
