Air Fry Fajita Mix
Preheat air fryer to 380°F (190°C). Place half of the chicken and vegetable mixture in the air fryer basket in a single layer (work in batches to avoid steaming). Cook for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
