Instructions

Air Fry Shrimp Fajitas

Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes. While it’s heating up, toss the shrimp, sliced onion, and bell peppers together in a bowl. Give everything a light spray of oil, then sprinkle on the fajita seasoning and mix it all up so the flavors coat everything evenly. Pop the mixture into the air fryer basket and cook for around 8 minutes until the shrimp are cooked through and the veggies are tender. Once done, squeeze some fresh lime juice over the top for a bright, zesty finish. Serve it right away with warm tortillas and enjoy!
