Cooking this recipe in two tiers provides more space to spread ingredients. It also infuses the potatoes with some of the smoky barbecue goodness from the meat.

Editor's Tip: For best results, use a heavy-duty, rimmed baking sheet (also called a jelly roll pan). To avoid post-meal scrubbing, line it with foil coated in cooking spray.

Replace your go-to taco night fare with this super-fast, mildly seasoned fajita recipe that's sure to become a favorite. Opting for all-corn tortillas will make it more nutritious (and gluten-free).

Test Kitchen Tip: We prefer cutlets for this recipe, but boneless skinless chicken breasts also work. Halve each breast lengthwise before cooking to make two thin portions.
