THE GAME PLAN

Let's Cook

  1. 01

    Heat the oven

    Preheat the oven to 425°F and lightly grease 1 large rimmed sheet pan.

  2. 02

    Choose your seasoning

    Mix the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and kosher salt in a small bowl.

  3. 03

    Chop the vegetables

    Remove the pepper seeds, then cut the peppers and onion into a small ¼-inch dice; smaller pieces will soften and blend into the chicken.

  4. 04

    Give the vegetables a head start

    Toss the vegetables with half of the olive oil, the honey, and about one-quarter of the seasoning; spread everything into one layer and roast for 8 minutes. Use 1 large rimmed sheet pan and keep everything in one uncrowded layer.

  5. 05

    Prepare the chicken

    While the vegetables roast, cut the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces. Chop the vegetables first, use a separate clean board for the chicken when available, wash your hands and tools afterward, and never rinse raw chicken.

  6. 06

    Season the chicken

    Toss the chicken with the remaining olive oil and remaining seasoning until evenly coated.

  7. 07

    Finish roasting

    Stir the chicken into the vegetables and spread everything into one layer; roast for another 14–18 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the thickest chicken pieces reach 165°F. Use 1 large rimmed sheet pan and keep everything in one uncrowded layer.

Nutrition varies by tortilla brand and toppings. Packaged seasoning may significantly increase sodium.

Gluten-free when certified-GF corn tortillas and seasonings are usedThe base recipe is dairy-freeCheese and Greek yogurt add dairy! Check packaged tortilla, seasoning, and topping labels for individual allergens.

FIRST-TACO STRATEGY

Make the first bite easy.

Start with a smaller scoop of the complete filling and add cheese, salsa, or another familiar topping. The goal isn’t to conquer a pile of vegetables—it’s to discover that well-cooked vegetables can make the chicken taste even better.

TRAINING-DAY UPGRADE

Turn up the fuel.

After a hard practice, add rice or black beans for more carbohydrates and total fuel. Greek yogurt provides a cool, creamy topping with additional protein.

CONTROL THE VARIABLES

Make It Yours

Keep it mild

Use mild chili powder and serve hot sauce separately.

Make it crispier

Broil the finished pan for 1–2 minutes while watching it closely.

Use chicken thighs

They’re flavorful, affordable, and harder to overcook.

Still nervous about vegetables?

Start with one pepper and work up to two next time.

Dairy-free

Skip the cheese and Greek yogurt; the base recipe already contains no dairy.

MONDAY LEFTOVER MOVE

Run it back differently.

Turn the remaining filling into a rice bowl, loaded baked potato, nachos, scrambled-egg breakfast tacos, or a crispy quesadilla.
