  • Total Time: 25–30 minutes

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined, tail on
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 4 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 4 tsp PERFECT TACO SEASONING BLEND, divided
  • 1 tsp GARLIC GODDESS BLEND
  • 1 tsp SOULFUL SEASONING SALT, divided
  • Pinch of SPICY PEPPER BLEND (optional)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • Chopped cilantro, for garnish (optional)
  • Flour tortillas, for serving (or salad greens, sweet potatoes, rice, or quinoa)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix 2 cups cold water with 1 tablespoon sea salt. Add shrimp and soak for 15–30 minutes to enhance flavor and tenderness.
  2. Drain and rinse shrimp under cold water, then pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Set aside.
  3. Return shrimp to the bowl and season with 2 teaspoons Perfect Taco Seasoning Blend, ½ teaspoon Soulful Seasoning Salt, and a pinch of Spicy Pepper Blend if using. Toss to coat and set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine sliced bell peppers and red onion. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, then toss with 2 teaspoons Perfect Taco Seasoning Blend, 1 teaspoon Garlic Goddess Blend, and ½ teaspoon Soulful Seasoning Salt.
  5. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned vegetables and sauté for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly charred and tender-crisp.
  6. Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet to create space for the shrimp. Add shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque.
  7. Toss everything together in the pan, squeeze with fresh lime juice, and remove from heat.
  8. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired and serve immediately with warm tortillas, over a salad, sweet potato, quinoa, or Spanish rice.
