About This Recipe:
Even though I love Mexican food, I don’t often find myself making it at home. But these shrimp fajitas are so delicious and easy to make, and a great weeknight dinner recipe. You could use chicken instead of shrimp, or make these vegetarian with mushrooms and other vegetables. And I don’t think that fajitas are complete without rice, beans, and sour cream so I always have those on the side!
Enjoy!
