Ingredients

3 bell peppers (red, green & yellow), sliced
1 small onion, sliced
1 pound shrimp
1 tablespoon Mexican Spice Mix
2 teaspoons olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish: Lime & Cilantro
Fajitas Toppings: Tortillas, cheese, sour cream, plain greek yogurt, salsa.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and line a sheet pan with foil. Spray with cooking spray.
Toss the bell peppers and onions in half the spices and half of the olive oil. Generously sprinkle both with salt and pepper.
Spread the peppers and onions in one layer on the pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
While the peppers are cooking, toss the shrimp in the other half of the spices and olive oil. Generously salt and pepper.
Remove the vegetables from the oven and carefully put the shrimp in a second layer on top of the veggies. Put the sheet pan back in the oven 4-8 minutes or until the shrimp curl and turn opaque.
Use the filling with your favorite fajitas goodies. For best taste, serve hot right out of the oven.
