Description

Skip the tacos and serve up these easy and flavorful shrimp fajitas, marinated in a zesty blend and served with sauteed onion and peppers.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
1 nonstick cooking spray
1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 medium orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 (8 ounce) package fajita-size flour tortillas, warmed

Directions

1 Whisk chili powder, olive oil, lime juice, and garlic salt together in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
2 While shrimp marinates, heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray. Add bell peppers and onion; saute until tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
3 Pour shrimp and the marinade into the same skillet. Cook shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 2 minutes per side.
4 Serve shrimp, onion, and peppers in flour tortillas.
