Shrimp Fajitas
"The key to perfectly juicy shrimp fajitas is all in the marinade. Packed with seasonings, soy sauce, lime juice, and diced jalapenos for a slight kick, this marinade really brings the flavor to the table. Up your game with juicy, flavorful marinated shrimp fajitas sauteed with colorful red, green, and yellow bell peppers and onion. Snuggle it all together in a warm tortilla for a mouth-watering experience! Pair that with sizzling hot bell peppers, onions, and maybe a side of classic Spanish rice and you have yourself restaurant-worthy fajitas made straight from home. "
