Ingredients

  • 8 small flour tortillas (warmed)

  3. Sprinkle the fajita seasoning and kosher salt over everything. Drizzle with the olive oil.
  4. Toss everything directly on the sheet pan until evenly coated, then spread into a single layer.
  5. Bake for 8 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and the vegetables are tender with lightly charred edges.

  7. Sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro.
