Ingredients (serves 4):

- 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 tbsp. lime juice
- 1 tbsp. honey
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8-10 flour tortillas
- Fresh cilantro, chopped

Cooking Tips:

- To save time, you can use pre-cooked shrimp instead of raw shrimp. Just add them to the pan at the end to heat them up.
- If you don't have a grill pan, you can use a regular frying pan instead.
- Don't overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough and rubbery.

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
2. In a large bowl, toss the shrimp, bell peppers, and onion with the marinade.
3. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and veggies to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through and the veggies are tender.
4. Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a griddle.
5. Serve the shrimp and veggies on the tortillas, topped with fresh cilantro.
