21 Day Fix Extreme Recipe: Chicken/Shrimp Fajitas
I am seriously loving all of the recipes in the Fix Extreme book! We made
the chicken fajita recipe and actually substituted the chicken for shrimp and
it was AMAZING!! I love to make extra so I can have some for lunch too! You can
use lettuce leaves for shells , or if you are using a yellow for dinner you can
mix with rice or use tortillas/shells!
If using shrimp I do not marinate with
the veggies since the shrimp only takes a couple of minutes to cook. Marinate
the veggies, cook them to your liking then add the shrimp. The shrimp will take
on all of the seasoning!
This recipe makes 4 servings and 2 fajitas each

1tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp olive oil, divided, use
