You all know that we love seafood around here, but on any given evening I need FAST options that I can pull together in a matter of minutes. The trick is finding meals that our entire family of 5 can agree on — and that’s no easy feat!

When I’m shopping at Walmart, I always stock my freezer with a few boxes of SeaPak Jumbo Butterfly Shrimp because they’re easy to cook, incredibly versatile, and always delicious! And since I don’t love washing dishes, I can get pretty creative when it comes to using ONE TRAY for our entire meal. Five minutes of prep and one dish to wash — it doesn’t get much better than that, right?

For these Crispy Shrimp Fajitas, you’ll just need 5 basic ingredients:

How To Make Crispy Shrimp Fajitas

The veggies cook for a little bit longer than the shrimp, so start by spreading the sliced pepper and onion in a single layer on a sheet pan.

sprinkle with fajita seasoning, and toss to coat. Bake the vegetables in a 425-degree F oven for about 5 minutes before adding the shrimp to the tray.

After an additional 13-14 minutes, you will have a pan full of zesty veggies and perfectly-crisp shrimp. Dinner is practically DONE! Just assemble the shrimp, peppers, and onions on tortillas and add your favorite toppings for the ultimate Fajita Feast!

This is such a perfect meal for families because the children can customize the fajitas to suit their individual tastes. Serving seafood in a familiar dish (like fajitas) also helps picky little eaters expand their palates and realize that this simple dinner is truly “Shrimptacular!”

By combining SeaPak shrimp with fresh ingredients, you get the best of all worlds: a quick, healthy, and easy meal for your family at the end of a busy day.

These fajitas are not only tasty, but the shrimp is an excellent way to meet the USDA’s recommendation of eating at least two 4-ounce servings of seafood each week. Good for you, quick, and delicious. The dinnertime trifecta!
