Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 500F and place a half sheet tray inside to preheat.
2. In a medium bowl, combine sliced chicken, sliced bell peppers, sliced poblano pepper, and sliced red onion.
3. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, chili powder, chili flake, oregano, lime juice, and olive oil to the bowl and toss to combine.
4. Remove the hot sheet tray from the oven and dump the chicken and veggie mixture onto it, spreading it out into an even layer.
5. Roast in the oven for 14-15 minutes, checking back at the halfway point and gently folding the mixture to get new stuff touching the hot pan.
6. While the fajitas are roasting, make the cilantro jalapeno crema by combining sour cream, mayonnaise, jalapeno pepper, garlic clove, cilantro, lime zest, and salt in a blender jar and blending until well combined.
7. After 14-15 minutes of roast time, remove the sheet tray from the oven and turn the broiler up to its highest setting.
8. Load the sheet tray back into the oven under the broiler and broil for 3 minutes.
9. Remove the sheet tray from the oven and stir the mixture, then load it back into the oven for another 2-3 minutes to sear the top.
10. Remove the sheet tray from the oven and let the fajitas cool for a few minutes.
11. Serve the fajita mixture in warm flour tortillas, drizzled with cilantro jalapeno crema and topped with crumbled queso fresco.
