AIR FRYER ESSENTIALS: CAJUN SHRIMP

I love shrimp, and I love how the air fryer makes them so yummy. This is a simple recipe that I like to make into shrimp tacos; however, they are wonderful over some nice long-grain white rice. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

  • PLATE/PRESENT
  • I like to make shrimp tacos, but they work great over some nice long-grained white rice. Enjoy.

AIR FRYER ESSENTIALS: SPICY CAJUN SHRIMP

Threw this together last night and was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful they were. The two changes I made were to use butter, in place of oil, and the addition of the breadcrumbs. Plus, the dipping sauce, adds just the right amount of heat, and sweet. Easy/Peasy to make... great to eat. So, you ready... Let's get into...

AIR FRYER CAJUN SHRIMP

Shrimp cook really fast and are on the table in less than 15 minutes. They have just a little kick, so it's perfect for eating by itself, served over rice, or added to tacos, a salad, fajitas, pastas, or incorporated into a sheet pan dinner. The spiciness can be controlled by the amount of Cajun seasoning and cayenne you use.

Steps:

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Rinse shrimp under cold running water, dry with paper towels, and transfer to a large bowl. Add olive oil, garlic, Cajun seasoning, pepper, onion powder, and cayenne, and toss to completely coat. Place shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  • Cook in the air fryer for 4 minutes. Flip the shrimp and cook until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 2 more minutes. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook the shrimp in 2 batches.
  • Remove shrimp from the air fryer and serve immediately garnished with parsley and lemon wedges.
