Jerk Shrimp Fajitas
This is a recipe i made up for a quick weeknight meal. over time, it evolved into something i'm proud enough to share with you all. please do not use a non-stick pan. you could try substituting the shrimp for chicken or fish and the pineapple or mango salsa for your favorite variety. like most caribbean recipes i like the combination of hot, sweet, savory, and sour in one dish. enjoy!!
