Grilled shrimp served with bell peppers, onions and tomatoes.

Where this dish comes from

The shrimp fajita taco is the taco version of the fajita plate — sautéed shrimp with onion, bell pepper, and chile, seasoned with cumin and chili powder, served in a warm flour tortilla with the standard fajita accompaniments. It is a Tex-Mex format applied to the taco, and it works because the fajita seasoning translates well to a handheld format.
