Tips:

  • Use large shrimp: They're easier to skewer and cook evenly.
  • Marinate the shrimp: This helps them stay juicy and flavorful.
  • Cook the shrimp over high heat: This helps them get a nice sear.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly.
  • Serve the shrimp fajitas immediately: They're best when they're hot off the grill.

One-pan shrimp fajitas are a quick, easy, and delicious meal that's perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. So next time you're looking for a simple but satisfying meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
