Tips:

  • Slice your veggies evenly. This will help them cook evenly and prevent some from becoming overdone while others are still raw.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you do, the veggies will steam instead of roasting and won't get that nice caramelized flavor.
  • Roast the veggies at a high temperature. This will help them get nice and crispy.
  • Season the veggies well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and cumin for a classic fajita flavor.
  • Don't forget the tortillas! Serve your fajitas with warm tortillas, salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.

Conclusion:

Sheet pan fajitas are a quick and easy weeknight meal that's perfect for busy families. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their veggies. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and healthy dinner on the table in no time.
