SHRIMP FAJITAS

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings (8 fajitas)

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 yellow bell peppers, quartered
1 red bell pepper, quartered
1 yellow onion, cut into thick rounds
1 bunch scallions, trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp, tails removed
8 small flour tortillas, warmed
For serving: sour cream, shredded iceberg lettuce, guacamole, shredded cheese and lime wedges

Steps:

Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.
Use a pastry brush to coat both sides of the peppers, onions and scallions with some of the oil, then sprinkle with a quarter of the spice mix. Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel, then brush with the remaining olive oil and season with the remaining spice mixture.
Grill the peppers, onions and scallions until grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board. Add the shrimp to the grill and cook just until they turn pink and begin to curl, about 2 minutes per side. Coarsely chop the vegetables and shrimp.
Serve with the warm flour tortillas (I like to wrap a stack of tortillas in foil and warm on the grill) and sour cream, lettuce, guacamole, cheese and lime wedges.

QUICK AND EASY SHRIMP FAJITAS

Quick and Easy Shrimp Fajitas image

This is a twist on a classic recipe using shrimp instead of beef or chicken. I use regular old taco seasoning to make it easier, but any seasoning combination for fajitas will work. Serve with refried beans and Spanish rice to make an easy meal!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
1 cup (1 small) chopped onion
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
3 tablespoons water, or as needed
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas, warmed

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red and green bell peppers, and onion. Cook, stirring frequently until peppers are hot, but still slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Pour the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil into the skillet, and add the shrimp. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and opaque. Reduce heat to low, and return the peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir in taco seasoning and water so that everything is evenly coated. Simmer until peppers are heated. Serve in warm tortillas.
