Ingredients

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
1 nonstick cooking spray
1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 medium orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 (8 ounce) package fajita-size flour tortillas, warmed

Steps:

Whisk chili powder, olive oil, lime juice, and garlic salt together in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
While shrimp marinates, heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray. Add bell peppers and onion; saute until tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
Pour shrimp and the marinade into the same skillet. Cook shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 2 minutes per side.
Serve shrimp, onion, and peppers in flour tortillas.
