Notes
Cooking fajitas in the air fryer takes little to no time at all! These shrimp fajitas are perfect on top of a salad, wrapped in a tortilla, or served with rice!
I garnished them with a little Cotija Cheese in some of the pictures ( which is totally optional).
In addition to peppers, you can easily add onions or even jalapeños!
