Sheet Pan Mahi Fajitas! –  Fresh veggies and fish all tossed together in a simple marinade. Serve with tortillas, lettuce wraps or chopped over a salad.  We all need more fish and veggies and this is a delicous way to get them!

This recipe is basically the same as our Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas  but  you are going to give the veggies a 10 minute head start since fish cooks so quickly.

Ingredients to make Sheet Pan Mahi Fajitas –

  • mahi, cod, halibut, tilapia all work great for this recipe
  • red, green and yellow bell peppers
  • onion
  • anaheim, poblano or japlapeno’ pepper depending on how much heat you like
  • cumin and chili powder
  • olive oil
  • tortillas or lettuce to wrap them up in!

Simply chop your veggies and toss in the simple fajita marinade you just mixed up.  Then nestle, (isn’t that a better word than plop?  Although I probably plop more than nestle).  ‘Nestle’ the fish fillets right on top of the the par cooked veggies  and bake for an additional 20 minutes.  Ding dinner done!

A delicious Meditteranean Style Fish Dinner – and we all know we need more fish and veggies in our lives!

Serve this up with  tortillas, or just plop nestle it on salad,  or wrap it up in a lettuce leaf for a delish lettuce wrap.

Don’t get me started on the leftover lunchbox thing here. Perrrfeect for that!  I love me some leftover lunchbox stuff!

Notes to make the perfect Mahi Fajitas –

  • We buy our Mahi from Costco, frozen – love, love, love it.  Thaw before using.
  • If you are using a less thick fillet like Tilapia, make sure and adjust your cooking time.
  • Line your sheet pan!  Parchment works best but foil will do in a pinch.
  • Use the convection feature of your oven if you have it.  It helps brown up the veggies.

For an additional pop of flavor we like to spread a little refried beans on our corn tortilla and layer another on top!
