Chicken fajitas in the air fryer don't get any better than this recipe. The chicken stays nice and moist, while the vegetables are crisp-tender. Serve with toppings of your choice, such as salsa, sliced avocado, and cheese.

Cook’s Note

Add two minutes of cooking time in Step 5 if you prefer softer veggies.

I like to toast my tortillas in the air fryer as well, but it is not necessary.
