How to Make Super Savory Shrimp Fajitas
- In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
- Set aside 1 tablespoon of the seasoning blend.
- In a large bowl, combine the remaining seasoning blend with 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 pound of shrimp (peeled and deveined).
- Toss to coat the shrimp evenly in the mixture.
- Set aside for at least 15 minutes to marinate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 large onion, sliced, and saute until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced, and continue to saute until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sprinkle the reserved 1 tablespoon of seasoning blend over the vegetables. Stir to combine.
- Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through.
- Add the cooked vegetables back to the skillet and toss to combine with the shrimp.
- Serve immediately in warm tortillas. Garnish with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and sour cream.
