  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

For the cilantro lime sour cream:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spread shrimp and sliced peppers on a large sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil.

  • While the shrimp cooks, make the cilantro lime sour cream by combining all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and mixing well.
  • Serve shrimp filling in warm tortillas with cilantro lime sour cream, lime wedges, sour cream, guacamole, or your favorite fajita toppings.
