QUICK AND EASY SHRIMP FAJITAS RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Quick and Easy Shrimp Fajitas Recipe | Allrecipes image

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!

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
1 cup (1 small) chopped onion
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
3 tablespoons water, or as needed
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas, warmed

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.

HALLOUMI FAJITAS RECIPE | BBC GOOD FOOD



Halloumi fajitas recipe | BBC Good Food image

Try these halloumi tortilla wraps with avocado for a quick and easy after-school meal. Serve with chilli sauce or soured cream

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Supper

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 x 225g blocks light halloumi
2 tbsp olive oil
1 red onion , halved and sliced
2 mixed peppers , sliced
2 garlic cloves , crushed
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground coriander
1 lime , juiced
8 small or 4 large tortilla wraps (use corn or flour)
1 avocado , stoned, peeled and sliced
small handful of coriander leaves
chilli sauce or soured cream, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Split each halloumi block through the middle lengthways (they should have a natural seam). Cut each half into four strips. Heat half the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, and fry the halloumi strips for a few minutes on each side until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the pan over a high heat, and fry the onion and peppers for 5 mins until just soft and starting to char. Add the garlic, paprika and coriander with some seasoning and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the lime juice and fried halloumi, and stir very gently so the halloumi doesn’t break up. Will keep at room temperature for a few hours. Reheat over a low heat with a little water.
  • Warm the wraps in a low oven wrapped in foil. Alternatively, warm two at a time for 10 seconds in the microwave (not wrapped in foil), or by holding them directly over a gas flame with a pair of tongs (this will give you flavourful charred edges).
  • Pile the halloumi filling into the warm wraps, with a few slices of avocado each, some coriander leaves, and spoonfuls of chilli sauce or soured cream, if you like.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN FAJITAS RECIPE - NYT COOKING
You might think fajitas are too fussy for a weeknight, but this easy, foolproof version roasts on a sheet pan and can be ready in an hour. Because the ingredients are thinly sliced, everything cooks in a flash — and with little attention required. Smoked paprika, chipotle chiles and a quick stop under the broiler provide the smoky flavor that would traditionally come from the grill. This recipe is very adaptable: Chicken is called for here, but you could also use shrimp or skirt steak. For a vegetarian version, substitute fresh corn kernels, mushrooms, poblano peppers or zucchini for the meat. Cut the vegetables into sizes you’d want in a taco, coat them in the lime-chipotle marinade, roast until cooked, then broil until charred.
