Ingredients

1-1/2 pounds uncooked shrimp (31-40 per pound), peeled and deveined

1 each medium green, sweet red and yellow peppers, cut into 1/2-inch strips

1 sweet onion, cut into 1/2-inch strips

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

3/4 teaspoon salt

12 corn tortillas (6 inches), warmed

Optional: Lime wedges, crema, fresh cilantro and sliced avocado

Instructions

1 Prepare the fajita mixture

2 Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, toss together the shrimp, peppers, onion and garlic. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with chili powder, cumin and salt. Toss to coat. Spread the fajita mixture evenly between two greased 15x10x1-inch sheet pans. Editor's Tip: You'll be broiling in the next step, so make sure you use a broiler-safe sheet pan and avoid anything with a nonstick coating.

3 Roast the fajita mixture

4 Roast for 10 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through cooking. Remove pans from the oven, and preheat the broiler.

5 Broil the fajita mixture

6 Broil the shrimp fajita mixture, one pan at a time, 3 to 4 inches from the heat until the vegetables are lightly browned and the shrimp turn pink, four to five minutes. Editor's Tip: Do not walk away from the oven during this step. Shrimp can overcook easily, so watch the pans closely and remove them as soon as the shrimp are pink and curled into a C or U shape.
