I made these skillet shrimp fajitas on a Saturday, but they could easily be whipped up on a busy weeknight. And Mexican food meals like this are such a crowd-pleaser, because everyone can choose their own toppings. Ideally, these are done in a cast iron skillet, because the food will char a bit as it cooks. This is another meal that will become a regular at our house!
