Apple & Shrimp pork fajitas

We’re kick-starting this Québec Pork themed week with a recipe made with apples. I used green apples but if you have any other kind, it’ll work just fine. Here’s a little tip to avoid that unsightly brown colouring that happens with apples: rub the apple pieces on a lemon, the citric acid slows the oxidizing process and keeps them looking fresh for longer.
This is a quick-fix fajitas recipe and the whole family will appreciate. So stay tuned for 5 more pork recipes this week.
