Bright, spicy, and impossibly fast, Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas put dinner on the table with smoky char and little fuss.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 450 g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
  • 60 ml olive oil
  • 30 ml lime juice
  • 10 g chili powder
  • 5 g ground cumin
  • 3 g smoked paprika
  • 8 g kosher salt
  • 1.5 g black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 15 g cilantro, chopped
  • 8 6-inch flour or corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. Make the marinade and season the shrimp in a small bowl whisk together olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, kosher salt, and minced garlic. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate for 5–10 minutes.
  2. Prep the vegetables by slicing bell peppers and yellow onion, then spread on the sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and salt.
  3. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F) and roast the peppers and onions for 8 minutes.

Notes

For crisp shrimp, consider air-frying after roasting. Leftover fajita mix can be used in scrambled eggs or quesadillas.
