Sheet Pan Honey Chile Chicken & Sweet Red Pepper Tacos

February 3, 2022

We LOVE tacos in this house. We love how everyone can make them the way they want and we all can eat together in harmony. 
 
I love making my spicy with hot sauce and salty with cotija cheese…extra cilantro is always good too. The chili powder and honey makes these sweet and peppery without the heat. The sweet red peppers cook up with the chicken and onions…top with cilantro and a fresh squeeze of lime.
 
Mix everything on the sheet pan. Cook it on the sheet pan and serve it from the sheet pan. 
 
How many times can I say sheet pan? BUT for REAL – I love when you can throw it all into the oven to cook together and you have a meal.
 
I served these with yellow rice, green pico, charred tortillas and crumbled cotija cheese…don’t forget the margarita too!
