QUICK AND EASY SHRIMP FAJITAS
This is a twist on a classic recipe using shrimp instead of beef or chicken. I use regular old taco seasoning to make it easier, but any seasoning combination for fajitas will work. Serve with refried beans and Spanish rice to make an easy meal!

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red and green bell peppers, and onion. Cook, stirring frequently until peppers are hot, but still slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Pour the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil into the skillet, and add the shrimp. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and opaque. Reduce heat to low, and return the peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir in taco seasoning and water so that everything is evenly coated. Simmer until peppers are heated. Serve in warm tortillas.

SHEET PAN SHRIMP FAJITAS
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.

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.
