Roasted bell peppers, zucchini and cherry tomatoes finished with Tajin and feta for an easy, zesty vegetarian dinner.
# What You'll Need:
→ Vegetables
01 - 2 large bell peppers (1 red, 1 yellow), cored and sliced into strips
02 - 1 large red onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch wedges
03 - 1 medium zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch half-moons
04 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
→ Cheese
05 - 7 oz feta cheese, crumbled
→ Seasonings
06 - 2 tbsp olive oil
07 - 2 tbsp Tajin seasoning
08 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
09 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
10 - Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
→ For Serving
11 - 8 small flour or corn tortillas
12 - 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
13 - 1 lime, cut into wedges
14 - Sour cream and avocado slices, optional
# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
02 - Spread the sliced bell peppers, red onion, zucchini, and halved cherry tomatoes in an even layer across the prepared sheet pan.
03 - Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables. Sprinkle with Tajin seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until all vegetables are evenly coated.
04 - Roast in the oven for 15 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften and develop light charring on the edges.
05 - Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle crumbled feta evenly over the roasted vegetables. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes until the feta softens and develops golden-brown spots.
06 - While the vegetables finish roasting, warm the tortillas either wrapped in aluminum foil in the oven or briefly in a dry skillet over medium heat.
07 - Spoon the roasted vegetables and melted feta into warmed tortillas. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a generous squeeze of lime. Add sour cream or avocado slices if desired. Serve immediately.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The combination of Tajin and feta creates a salty, tangy crust on the vegetables that tastes like you spent far more effort than you actually did.
- Everything cooks on a single pan, which means cleanup is almost embarrassingly easy for something this colorful and satisfying.
02 -
- If you crowd the vegetables too tightly on the pan they will steam instead of roast, and you will miss that irresistible caramelized edge entirely.
- Adding the feta halfway through rather than at the beginning was a lesson I learned after burning an entire batch of cheese onto the parchment paper on my first attempt.
03 -
- Let the sheet pan preheat in the oven for two minutes before adding the vegetables, because starting on a hot surface gives you a better char on the bottoms without any extra work.
- Keep a second lime on hand because one is never enough once people start squeezing it over their assembled fajitas and asking for more.
