How Do I Make Kory's Shrimp Fajitas?

Here is how you make Kory's Shrimp Fajitas:

Thaw the shrimp by the instructions on the bag the shrimp come in. Shell them if they still have the shells on after thawing. Place the shelled shrimp in a medium mixing bowl. Pour in oil, vinegar, and lemon juice. Mix the shrimp in the liquid. Mix in the chili powder, cumin powder, salt, black pepper, and cheyenne pepper (optional). The shrimp should be sitting in a liquid. If it appears pasty, mix in a little more oil or vinegar. Set aside for 10 mins (or up to a few hours) in the refrigerator.Spray (or lightly coat) the skillet with oil. Preheat the skillet to medium high so that your ingredients will sizzle! Once heated, throw in the green peppers and onions. Let them cook for 2-3 mins (or until caramelized partially). While they're cooking, take out the bowl with the shrimp in them. Pour the entire contents of the bowl (shrimp and marinade) in the skillet with the onions and peppers. Evenly distribute the shrimp in the skillet so they evenly cook. Once you add the shrimp, add the diced tomato in as well. Wait a minute, and then toss the shrimp around. Once the shrimp have turned pink almost completely, you can take the skillet off the heat and let it cook from the residual heat. You'll know the shrimp is cooked when it turns pink and is no longer translucent.Take the skillet and place it on the table over a towel (to prevent burning of the table) and use the tongs to scoop out the fajitas to place in your tortillas.Makes about 2 servings of 2 tortillas full of filling.
