Description

How to Reheat Fajitas — 5 Easy Methods  Reheating fajitas to sizzling perfection is a culinary skill every Tex-Mex enthusiast should master.

Ingredients 

  • 2 servings leftover fajitas, cooked

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C).
  • If your air fryer has a preheat function, use it to ensure it's properly warmed up.
  • Place the leftover chicken fajitas in the air fryer basket. Make sure to spread them out in a single layer for even reheating.
  • If desired, lightly spray the fajitas with cooking spray to help them get crispy. This step is optional but can enhance the texture.
  • Cook the fajitas for 3-5 minutes. Be sure to check them after 3 minutes to avoid overcooking. You're aiming to heat them through, not to fully cook them again.
  • Shake the air fryer basket or flip the fajitas halfway through the cooking time for even heating.
  • Once the fajitas are heated through and have reached your desired level of crispiness, remove them from the air fryer.
  • Serve the reheated chicken fajitas with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and shredded cheese.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Cooking Spray, optional
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

Notes:
  • Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fajitas and your specific air fryer model. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
  • If you're reheating a larger batch, you may need to do it in multiple batches to ensure they reheat evenly.
  • Customize your fajitas with additional toppings like sliced jalapeños, fresh cilantro, or lime wedges for added flavor.
