Equipment

  • Sheet pan/baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 1 TBSP olive oil
  • 2 TBSP fajita seasoning Or my homemade taco seasoning
  • 2 bell peppers, gutted and sliced into strips
  • 1 red onion, sliced into strips
  • Flour tortillas

To serve

  • Cheese
  • Sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • Salsa
  • Hot sauce
  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450º F with the rack in the middle position.
  • Place the peppers, onions, and shrimp into a large mixing bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle the seasoning on top, and toss to evenly coat.
  • Dump the veggies and shrimp onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread everything out to create an even layer. I like to nestle some limes in there to roast so that I can squeeze them over the fajitas before eating them. (Roasting any citrus fruit makes it much juicier!)
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the veggies are tender and the shrimp is opaque and forming a “C” shape.
  • Fill a tortilla with shrimp and veggies, then top with yummy fajita toppings like cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, etc.
