Instructions

In a small bowl, combine chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Rub the spice mixture all over the fish fillets, coating them evenly. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.

In the same skillet, add the bell pepper and red onion. Cook until they are softened and lightly charred, about 5 minutes.

Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or oven.

Assemble the fajitas by placing the fish, bell pepper, and onion on the tortillas. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top.
