SPICY SHRIMP FAJITAS
These shrimp fajitas are a great weeknight dish. Quick, easy, and delicious. If you prefer something milder, omit the chipotle peppers - but trust me - they really add some kick! I serve these with black or refried beans on the side. Very yummy. Serve with avocado, sour cream, and shredded Cheddar cheese if you like.

- Start by preparing the shrimp fajitas marinade recipe. Measure out the cajun seasoning, olive oil, and lime juice into a small mixing bowl. Add minced garlic, a dash of salt to taste, then mix the ingredients.
- Next, prepare your bell peppers and onion by slicing them, then seasoning them with half of the marinade you just made. Use the other half of your marinade to season your shrimp. Make sure your shrimp, peppers, and onion are all well coated in the cajun seasoning!
- Place a large skillet or a wok on the stovetop and add a drizzle of olive oil. Lower the heat to medium, and allow the oil to heat up. Add your seasoned shrimp, and cook them for no more than 2 minutes on each side. Remove the cooked shrimp and set it to one side.
- We now need to cook sauteed peppers and onions for fajitas by adding our seasoned cajun vegetables to the same skillet or wok. Sautee for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are soft.
