SHEET PAN SHRIMP FAJITAS

Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas image

This recipe is sponsored by Target. Let the oven and broiler do the heavy lifting for this super-simple weeknight dinner. Chili powder and cumin give lots of warm spice to bell peppers, onions and shrimp while just a few minutes under the broiler lends a lovely smokiness. Served with warm tortillas and a 3-minute homemade salsa, this is a mostly hands-off meal that's a real crowd-pleaser.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

3 bell peppers, assorted colors, stemmed, seeded and cut into strips
2 medium red onions, halved and sliced vertically
2 jalapeños, 1 sliced into matchsticks, 1 coarsely chopped
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 teaspoons chili powder
3 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Half 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
1/2 small yellow onion, coarsely chopped
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup packed cilantro leaves
1 pound frozen large tail-off, peeled and deveined raw shrimp, such as Good & Gather, thawed
Warm corn tortillas, for serving

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, combine the bell peppers, red onions and sliced jalapeño. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the oil, 2 teaspoons of the chili powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cumin. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss well, then spread in an even layer. Roast the vegetables until slightly softened and beginning to brown, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the tomatoes, yellow onion, 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice, the coarsely chopped jalapeño, 1 teaspoon of the chili powder and 1 teaspoon of the cumin and process until nearly smooth. Add 1/2 cup of the cilantro and pulse until very finely chopped. Season the salsa with salt and pepper, then transfer to a serving bowl.
Remove the vegetables from the oven. Turn the oven to broil and position a rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source.
Combine the shrimp with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon cumin in a medium bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss well. Scatter the shrimp over the vegetables and broil until the shrimp are just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the vegetables and shrimp with the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1/2 cup cilantro. Serve with warm corn tortillas and the salsa.

PRAWN FAJITAS WITH AVOCADO CREAM

Mexican flavours of lime, garlic, chilli and coriander infuse these tasty tortilla wraps served with creamy guacamole

Provided by Lucy Netherton

Categories Dinner, Main course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

juice 2 lime , plus wedges to serve
1 red chilli , deseeded and chopped
2 garlic cloves , crushed
small bunch coriander , chopped
225g large raw peeled prawn
1 avocado , stoned and skinned
1 heaped tbsp soured cream , plus extra to serve
1 tbsp olive oil
1 red pepper , deseeded and sliced
4 flour tortillas and a good handful mixed salad leaves, to serve

Steps:

Mix half the lime juice, half the chilli, half the garlic and half the coriander with some seasoning in a shallow dish. Add the prawns and mix to coat them all. Leave to marinate while you prepare the avocado.
Roughly chop the avocado and pop it in a small food processor with the remaining lime juice, chilli, garlic, the soured cream and some seasoning. Whiz until smooth, then stir in the remaining coriander. (You could also use a stick blender for this.)
Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the pepper for a few mins, until starting to soften. Add the prawns and fry, in a single layer, for 1-2 mins each side - you will know they are cooked when they turn pink and feel firm to the touch. Serve in warm tortillas with salad leaves, if you like, alongside the avocado cream, soured cream and some lime wedges.

Tips:

Choose fresh, large prawns. This will ensure that your fajitas are succulent and flavorful.
Marinate the prawns in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to infuse the prawns with flavor.
Cook the prawns over high heat in a large skillet or on a grill. This will help to sear the prawns and prevent them from becoming tough.
Serve the prawns immediately with your favorite fajita toppings, such as grilled peppers and onions, guacamole, salsa, and sour cream.
For a healthier version of fajitas, use whole-wheat tortillas and low-fat toppings.
