  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 3 portabella mushroom caps, cleaned with stems removed
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • seasoning blend below
  • 3–4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced

Seasoning Blend

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

To Serve

  • chopped romaine lettuce

What You Do

  1. Marinate the mushrooms and the shrimp in lime juice for 10 minutes while you prepare the seasoning blend. Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of the seasoning blend over the mushroom caps and shrimp.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium to large skillet or cast iron pan. Add the mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 4 minutes over medium-high heat. Turn and continue cooking until soft and tender all the way through, another 3-4 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the bell peppers and red onion to the skillet and cook until seared. Vegetables should remain crisp. Remove from the skillet and set aside along with the mushroom caps.
  4. Now add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook 1-2 minutes per side, just until they turn pink and opaque. Remove them from the heat. Slice the mushrooms into strips and add them and the vegetables back to the skillet with the shrimp for serving.
  5. Serve immediately with warmed tortillas and toppings.
