You’ve heard of street tacos and you’ve seen the bulging burritos, but have you indulged yourself in low-fat, high-health shrimp fajitas on your own terms? Now you can! Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas adds to your strategic meal preparation with 4 portions of zest at just 246 kcal per meal! You’ll be in and out of the kitchen in just 23 minutes for one of the easiest meal prep recipes, ready to focus on what you do best.
Fajitas have really only been around since the 1930s or 40s, created by Mexican ranch workers near the Rio Grande on the Texas-Mexican border. They invented fajitas as a way to use some pretty tough steak. But today’s meal prep recipe is going to savor the shrimp instead!
Shrimp are lower in fat and calories than pork, beef and even lean beef. They’re faster and easier to cook than fish and are a go-to protein source for athletes and top-performers. They bring omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants too. There’s something to be said that great things come in small packages!
This sheet pan shrimp fajita dinner requires minimal prep with plenty of veggies and protein to keep you full! Best of all, it’s ready in under 30 minutes!
We’ve got you covered with this meal prep recipe! Cooked shrimp will easily last for 3-4 days in your refrigerator. With 32g protein, Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas can solve your snack problems perfectly right out of the fridge or become an amazing appetizer for a larger meal.
You can absolutely freeze Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas though your tortillas will always be best fresh. Use glass meal prep containers for easy reheating. Cooked shrimp can maintain their best quality for 10-12 months in a freezer, but why would you want to wait that long? You’ll just be dreaming of your next bite!
Cooking Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas is super easy, especially when you get all your ingredients ready. Preheat the oven to 425°F and roast as per the instructions. You’ll have everything ready to eat before you know it.
Sheet Pan Shrimp Fajitas portion perfectly into three sections: shrimp, pico de gallo and tortilla. Keep the tortilla separate from the pico de gallo and shrimp so it will stay firm enough for your meal at the right time. A three-compartment meal prep container is perfect for this meal prep recipe.
