Wink Chipotle Shrimp Fajitas

Chipotle Shrimp Fajitas
1 small red or green bell pepper, julienned
1/2 small sweet or red onion, cut into thin wedges
2 tsp canola oil
8 oz shelled, deveined uncooked medium shrimp
1/4 cup chipotle-flavored salsa
4 tbs chopped cilantro, divided
4 corn tortillas, warmed
1/4 cup purchased guacamole or make your own (I was going for the shortcut;->)

I'm not a big seafood fan, but my hubbie would like these. And I could probably make some chicken fajitas for me. Thanks for the recipe!
