Leftover Roast Chicken Fajitas

Instructions:

  1. Make the salsa: In a bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, coriander, chili peppers, and a squeeze of lime juice. Reserve the remaining lime wedges for serving.
  2. Prepare the vegetables and chicken:
  3. Cut the bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Shred the cooked chicken with two forks.
  5. Season the vegetables and chicken: In a bowl, toss the vegetables and chicken with the thyme, chili pepper, paprika, and cumin seeds.
  6. Air fry the vegetables and chicken:
  7. Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (200°C).
  8. Add the seasoned vegetables and chicken to the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  9. Air fry for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is heated through.
  10. Assemble the fajitas: Serve the air-fried vegetables, shredded chicken, lettuce leaves, fat-free yogurt, and salsa at the table. Let everyone fill their lettuce leaves with their desired ingredients.

Tips:

  1. For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in lime juice and spices before air frying.
  2. You can use different types of lettuce leaves for the fajitas, such as romaine or iceberg.
  3. To make the fajitas spicier, add more chili peppers to the salsa and the vegetable mixture.
