Method

  1. 1

    Dice the chicken breast, all bell peppers, and the red onion; place them in a bowl and toss with the fajita seasoning and fresh lime juice until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Lightly spray the air‑fryer basket, then add the seasoned chicken and vegetables. Cook at 400°F for 14–16 minutes, tossing the mixture halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

  3. 3

    While the chicken and vegetables cook, rinse the rice, combine with water, and cook according to package instructions. Once both components are ready, divide the rice and the chicken‑fajita mixture evenly into four meal‑prep containers.

Tips while you cook

Season before cooking
Toss the chicken and vegetables with the seasoning and lime juice before air‑frying.
Mid‑cook stir
Shake or stir the basket halfway through the 14–16 minute cook.
Rinse rice
Rinse the rice until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
Scale safely
If you need to adjust the recipe, use the recipe‑scaler tool to proportionally change the chicken, peppers, and rice quantities while keeping the 1 packet fajita seasoning per 2 lb chicken ratio.
