This Keto Chicken Fajitas recipe offers a low-carb, flavorful twist on the classic Mexican dish using tender chicken breasts and colorful bell peppers slow-cooked to perfection. Ideal for a healthy, satisfying meal served with lettuce wraps or avocado slices.

Ingredients

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 packet fajita seasoning (low-carb)
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • Juice of 1 lime

Vegetables

  • 2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Season Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot. Sprinkle the fajita seasoning, salt, and black pepper evenly over the chicken.
  2. Add Vegetables and Liquids: Layer the sliced bell peppers and onion on top of the chicken. Pour in the chicken broth and squeeze the juice of one lime over the ingredients.
  3. Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 7 hours, or on high heat for 4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  4. Shred and Mix: Remove the cooked chicken breasts and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot and mix thoroughly with the cooked vegetables.
  5. Serve: Serve the chicken fajitas hot, using lettuce wraps or avocado slices as a keto-friendly alternative to tortillas.
