Cooking Chicken Fajitas: What Temp Is Ideal?

In summary, the ideal temperature for cooking chicken fajitas is 375 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also cook them at a higher temperature if needed, but be sure to keep an eye on them. To know when the chicken fajitas are done, use a meat thermometer or check for clear juices and a golden brown color. It is not necessary to cover the dish while cooking, but it can make the chicken more moist and tender. The cooking time for chicken fajitas is around 20-25 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit, but always use a thermometer to ensure they are fully cooked.

What temp am I looking for on the Chicken fajitas in the DBC recipe? First time making it at a show. At home I just cut it open and look..
 
I would say 160, then let it rest with the lid on and it will go up to around 170
 
The tortilla can go in the oven at 250 or micro for 30 to 40 seconds.

Hi there! When making the chicken fajitas in the DBC recipe, you'll want to cook the chicken at a temperature of 375°F for about 20-25 minutes. However, it's always a good idea to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F for safe consumption. Happy cooking and I hope your show is a success! Let me know if you have any other questions.
