Ingredients
  

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced

1 medium red onion, sliced

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of 1 lime

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Tortillas for serving

Optional toppings: avocado, sour cream, salsa

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the spices are incorporated.

      Add the Shrimp and Veggies: To the bowl of marinade, add the peeled and deveined shrimp, sliced bell peppers, and red onion. Toss everything together until the shrimp and veggies are evenly coated with the marinade.

        Spread on the Sheet Pan: Transfer the marinated shrimp and veggies onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer for even cooking.

          Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.

            Add Lime Juice: As soon as they come out of the oven, drizzle the juice of one lime over the shrimp and vegetables for an extra burst of flavor.

              Serve: Serve the shrimp and veggies warm with tortillas. Top with fresh cilantro and any optional toppings like avocado, sour cream, or salsa to enhance your fajita experience.

                Enjoy: Gather friends and family around the table and enjoy building your delicious shrimp fajitas!
