1 1/2 lb. shrimp (peeled, deveined, tails removed)
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 package of fajita seasoning
1 lime
Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Tortillas, warmed
Heat 1 tbsp. of olive oil over high heat in a 12 inch cast iron pan. Add onions and bell peppers and 1/2 of seasoning mixture. Cook for about five minutes until onions and bell peppers are tender. Add rest of fajita seasoning and toss well. Push onions and bell peppers to the side of the skillet to make room for shrimp or place in another bowl. Add remaining olive oil and shrimp to skillet. Sauté shrimp until pink and cooked through. Squeeze juice from 1 lime over skillet and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve in warm tortillas.
Notes:
Have shrimp, bell peppers and onions prepared before you start cooking. This recipe only takes a few minutes to cook and you want to have all the ingredients ready to go. Can serve with cheese, guacamole, and/or sour cream.
