Directions

Directions are for original recipe of 4 servings

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Thinly slice the bell peppers and red onion. Pat the shrimp dry and remove tails if desired. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.

2. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

3. Place bell pepper and onion slices on one sheet pan. Drizzle with half of the olive oil and add about half of the seasoning mix. Toss to coat and spread evenly. Bake on the top rack for 10 minutes.

4. On the second sheet pan, add shrimp, remaining olive oil, and remaining seasoning mix. Toss to coat and spread evenly. Swap the veggie pan to the lower rack and place the shrimp pan on the top rack. Bake for 5-6 minutes until shrimp are opaque. Optionally, broil shrimp and veggies for 1-2 minutes each.

5. Toss shrimp with lime juice and fresh chopped cilantro. Warm tortillas and slice avocado for topping. Remove tails from shrimp if needed and serve with veggies, avocado, and sour cream.
