- 1½ pounds chicken breasts cut into 1" strips
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil

- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium red pepper cut into ¾" strips
- 1 medium yellow pepper cut into ¾" strips
- 1 medium orange pepper cut into ¾" strips

Toppings

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1" strips add them to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the avocado oil, minced garlic, taco seasoning, chili powder, salt, and pepper and mix together, making sure to coat the chicken evenly.
Slice the red, orange, and yellow peppers and onion into 3/4" strips, toss them with the chicken in the bowl, and then spread everything evenly onto a baking sheet that is lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Bake in a preheated oven oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle and the veggies have light golden edges.
