Tonight’s meal is quick, easy, and downright delicious. It’s got it all—we’re talking spiced shrimp, sautéed poblano, and onion, all tossed with lime juice for a tangy punch. The joyous jumble gets piled into steamy flour tortillas along with spicy guacamole, a drizzle of smoky red pepper crema, and a dash of hot sauce if you like a little extra kick. Talk about a fajita-tastic meal!

Instructions

Prep & Mix Guacamole
1

• Wash and dry produce. • Quarter lime. Halve, core, and thinly slice poblano into strips. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. • In a small bowl, combine guacamole, a squeeze of lime juice, and a dash of hot sauce (save the rest for serving). Season with salt and pepper.

Cook Veggies
2

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add poblano and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add half the Fajita Spice (you’ll use the rest in the next step) and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.

Cook Shrimp
3

• Meanwhile, rinse shrimp* under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. • Push veggies to one side of pan; add a drizzle of oil to empty side. Add shrimp and remaining Fajita Spice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp is opaque and cooked through, 3-4 minutes. • Stir veggies and shrimp to combine. Add a big squeeze of lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off heat.

Finish & Serve
4

• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, about 30 seconds. • Divide tortillas between plates and fill with shrimp and veggie filling and spicy guacamole. Drizzle with smoky red pepper crema. Serve with remaining hot sauce and any remaining lime wedges on the side.
