Q1. Can I use frozen chicken for this sheet pan dinner?

Yes, but thaw it first. Frozen chicken releases too much water and steams instead of roasting. I thaw mine overnight in the fridge or use the defrost setting on my microwave in a pinch. Pat it dry with paper towels before slicing - this helps get those perfect browned edges.

Q2. How spicy is the fajita seasoning?

The heat level depends on your seasoning blend. Most store-bought mixes are mild-medium. If you're sensitive to spice, start with 2 teaspoons instead of a full tablespoon. My kids love it when I add a teaspoon of honey to balance the heat - works like a charm.

Q3. Can I prep these easy fajitas ahead for meal prep?

Absolutely, I often chop veggies and chicken the night before and store them separately in the fridge. The seasoning can even be mixed ahead. Just toss everything together right before baking - the lime juice keeps the veggies fresh.

Q4. Why do my veggies get soggy sometimes?

Two culprits: overcrowding the pan (steam can't escape) or slicing too thin. Keep veggies at least ½-inch thick, and don't stir more than once during baking. That single stir gives you perfect caramelization without mushiness.
