Easy Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas

Easy sheet pan shrimp fajitas are so simple! Work has been crazy lately which usually means eating out for lunch and maybe cheese and crackers for supper. It was time for a home cooked meal and I was beat! This recipe saved the day for sure. The shrimp get tossed with the seasoning and olive oil, then toss the veggies with the shrimp. Lay everything out on the sheet pan and cook together for 10 minutes. The shrimp will be done quickly so be careful they don’t get over cooked. After 10 minutes remove the shrimp from the pan and broil the rest of the veggies for 2-3 minutes to give them that black smokey goodness that really gives it the fajita flavor. Be careful not to burn them. The broiler is my nemesis! I like to multi task and idle time drives me crazy, but this is one thing you want to be sure and take the time to sit and watch. They can go from cooked to charcoal in seconds!
