Make fajita seasoning. In a small bowl, add fajita seasoning ingredients and stir together.
Cut and season the meats. Cut the chicken and steak into thin strips. De-thaw frozen shrimp, if needed. Place into three separate bowls. Gently coat each of the proteins on both sides with the fajita seasoning.
Cook the chicken, steak, and shrimp. Lightly coat a 14" skillet with oil and cook the chicken on both sides on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until full cooked. Internal temperature needs to reach 165 degrees. Move chicken to a large bowl. Repeat this step for the steak and again for the shrimp. Add steak and shrimp to the bowl of cooked chicken.
Sauté the bell peppers and onions. Slice the peppers and onions into thin strips. Sauté for a few minutes until caramelized. Stir constantly.
Mix everything together and serve. Add chicken, steak and shrimp back to the same skillet. Squeeze the other half of lime juice on top, and mix everything together.
