In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, lime juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and the following seasonings: 2 tablespoons of garlic powder, 2 teaspoons of chili powder, ½ teaspoon of ground cumin, ½ teaspoon of paprika, ½ teaspoon of oregano, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of pepper. Toss well to ensure the shrimp is evenly coated. Set aside and let it marinate for 15 minutes.
Add the thinly sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a plate and keep them warm.
Using the same skillet, add the marinated shrimp. Cook the shrimp for approximately 3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
Once the shrimp is cooked, return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the shrimp. Stir everything together to combine the flavors.
