I'm not sure what went wrong, but my fajitas turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

The shrimp was a little tough, but the veggies were delicious. I would recommend using a different type of shrimp next time.

These fajitas were a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices to the marinade.

I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but these fajitas were surprisingly good. The marinade really tenderized the shrimp and the veggies were perfectly cooked.

I found the marinade to be a bit too salty. I would recommend using less salt next time.

These fajitas were just okay. The shrimp was a little overcooked and the veggies were not very flavorful.

I used chicken instead of shrimp and it turned out great! The marinade really gives the chicken a lot of flavor.
