Hint

Increase the spicy with one of our heat-infused olive oils. Adapted from howsweeteats.

Directions

Step 1.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prep a baking sheet (lined with foil). In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, zest, honey, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, pepper and garlic. Place the peppers and onions on the baking sheet. Add half of the marinade and toss them well, until they’re all covered. Stick the sheet in the oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, tossing once or twice during cook time.

Step 2.

In the meantime, place the shrimp in a bowl and pour the remaining marinade over top. Let sit until the peppers are roasted! When the peppers are finished, toss them a few times and scoop them over to one side of the pan. Place the shrimp on the sheet in a single layer. Roast the shrimp for 6 to 8 minutes or until it’s just pink and opaque.

Step 3.

Once the shrimp is finished, assemble your fajitas! Start with peppers and onions, add on the shrimp. Drizzle with the crema, sprinkle with cotija cheese and top with pickled onions and fresh cilantro if you wish.

Step 4. Lime Crema

Whisk together all ingredients and let them sit for at least 15 minutes before using. This stores great in the fridge for a few days

Sheet Pan Lime Shrimp

This was a simple, quick, and delicious recipe that was a huge hit. I didn't serve as Fajita's but instead served the shrimp and peppers on a bed of cilantro-lime rice with the lime crema drizzle to top it off.
