QUICK AND EASY SHRIMP FAJITAS



Quick and Easy Shrimp Fajitas image

This is a twist on a classic recipe using shrimp instead of beef or chicken. I use regular old taco seasoning to make it easier, but any seasoning combination for fajitas will work. Serve with refried beans and Spanish rice to make an easy meal!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
1 cup (1 small) chopped onion
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
3 tablespoons water, or as needed
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
