Air Fryer Fried Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Place melted butter in a medium bowl. Mix in lemon juice, garlic granules, and salt. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
• Line air fryer basket with perforated parchment paper. Place shrimp in the air fryer basket and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Cook shrimp in the air fryer at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Zest the lemon in strips using a peeler, making sure to avoid the white pith. Cut the lemon in half, then cut one half into wedges for serving. Reserve the other half for squeezing.
• Put the lemon zest, shrimp, thyme, garlic, bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a cake pan and toss to combine. Spread the mixture out in the pan and dot the butter on top. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Put the cake pan in the air fryer and cook until the butter is bubbling and the shrimp are opaque, 10 to 12 minutes. While the shrimp cook, boil the pasta according to the package instructions.
• Discard the lemon zest, bay leaf and thyme from the shrimp mixture. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Pour the shrimp mixture over the pasta. Add the parsley and olive oil, squeeze in the juice from the reserved lemon half and toss to combine. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Combine flour and half of the seasonings.
• In a separate bowl, combine bread crumbs and remaining seasonings.
• Preheat air fryer 400 F for 5 minutes.
• Toss shrimp in the flour mixture.
• Remove a shrimp from the flour mixture and dip in egg and then into the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Lightly spray shrimp with cooking spray (I used olive oil).
• Add a single layer of shrimp to the air fryer basket.
• Cook 4 minutes.
• Flip shrimp over, spritz with cooking spray (I used olive oil) and cook an additional 4 minutes or just until cooked through and crispy.
• Repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Serve with cocktail sauce.
• To reheat, place on a baking sheet in a 350 F oven for up to 10 minutes or until crispy.

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes.
• While the air fryer is heating, separate frozen shrimp if necessary and knock off any ice crystals that may have developed with a spoon.
• Place a single layer of frozen shrimp, about 1/2 pound, in the cooking area of the preheated air fryer and cook for 4 minutes.
• Combine melted butter, seafood seasoning, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
• When the timer sounds, brush each shrimp with seasoned butter, turn over, and brush the other side as well. Air-fry until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 4 more minutes. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
