Tips for Making Pellet Grill Chicken Fajitas:
First, remember that all foil is not created equally, be sure to get a heavy-duty foil that will not rip once you have the food prepared in it.
This particular recipe made 4 foil packs for our family, it is best to rotate these foil packs to get them evenly cooked on all sides, you can also open them up toward the end of the cooking time to vent.
Once done, just serve each foil pack with warm tortillas and sides of your choice. The tortillas can also be warmed upright on the grill as well.
The pellet grill does need to be warmed up to 350*F before placing the foil packs on the grill, once that is done the foil packs can be added and cooked for about 30 minutes. The internal temperature needs to be at least 165*F before serving.
These fajitas are adapted from Ninja Foodi Chicken Fajitas. This grilled version is a great outdoor alternative as we move into the grilling season.
Can you make gluten-free pellet grill chicken fajitas?
This recipe is easy and adaptable to gluten-free, using a gluten-free taco or fajita seasoning.
The fajitas can then be served on white corn tortillas, making this a very frugal, simple gluten-free meal.
It’s time to enjoy a delicious dinner!
