Instructions

In a medium bowl, mix the shrimp and half of the fajita seasoning together. Set aside.
Place a medium-large skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the olive oil, onion, bell peppers and remaining fajita seasoning.
Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions have wilted and the bell peppers are tender.
Add the shrimp to the pan and sauté for 2-3 more minutes until cooked.
While the shrimp are cooking, place a second skillet over medium-high heat. Place a tortilla in the pan for 30 seconds to heat and then remove to a serving plate. Repeat for remaining tortillas.
Serve shrimp mixture in tortillas with optional salsa, sour cream and cilantro. Enjoy!
