Variations Ideas

  • Change Meat – This recipe can be made with steak fajitas, chicken or pork. Use what your family prefers.

Step by Step Instructions

  • Step 1 – First, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • Step 4 – Spread bell peppers and yellow onion onto the baking sheet.

  • Step 5 – Drizzle olive oil over top. Season with salt and then toss everything to evenly coat. Spread into an even layer working to keep shrimp from overlapping.
  • Step 6 – Roast in preheated oven, tossing once halfway through cooking. Bake until veggies are tender and shrimp has cooked through, about 9-10 minutes.

Recipe Tips

  • Vegetables – We recommend slicing peppers and onions about the same size. This ensures that they cook evenly.
  • Shrimp – Shrimp does not take long to cook. Feel free to use already cooked shrimp.
  • Combining Ingredients – Completely coat the shrimp with the fajita seasoning for the best results.
