Method

For the Mojo Shrimp

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine the lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and cumin. Add the shrimp and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

For the Poblano Rajas

  1. 3

    Cook the Rajas

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced poblano peppers and onion. Sprinkle with salt and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred. Remove from heat and set aside.

For the Grilled Pineapple

  1. 4

    Prepare the Pineapple

    In a bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over the pineapple slices on both sides.

  2. 5

    Grill the Pineapple

    Preheat the grill to medium heat. Grill the pineapple slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until caramelized and grill marks appear. Remove from heat and set aside.

For Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Fajitas

    Warm the flour tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. On each tortilla, layer the grilled shrimp, poblano rajas, and a generous sprinkle of shredded Mexican cheese. Top with grilled pineapple and a dollop of sour cream.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Garnish each fajita with lime wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your Fiesta!
