Ingredients

2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons garlic salt
2 pounds medium shrimp – peeled, deveined, and tails removed
2 tablespoon nonstick cooking spray
2 medium red bell peppers, thinly sliced
2 medium orange bell peppers, thinly sliced
2 medium red onions, thinly sliced
2 (8 ounce) packages fajita-size flour tortillas, warmed

Instructions

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the chili powder, olive oil, lime juice, and garlic salt. Place the peeled, deveined, and tail-removed shrimp into the bowl and toss to evenly coat. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
While the shrimp marinates, prepare your vegetables. Thinly slice the red and orange bell peppers and the red onions.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and sauté the sliced bell peppers and onions for 7-8 minutes, or until tender. Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
Pour the marinated shrimp and the marinade into the same skillet. Cook the shrimp for approximately 2 minutes per side, or until they turn bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque throughout.
Warm the fajita-size flour tortillas according to the package instructions.
Serve the grilled shrimp, sautéed bell peppers and onions, and warm tortillas. Allow your guests to assemble their fajitas as desired.
