Ever since my husband gifted me this kitchen appliance, I have been using it a lot. I grill in it and most of all, I have used it for a lot of air frying. I totally prefer an air fryer now over oil-fried food. It just seems tastier and I like that it’s not greasy. Whoever invented the air fryer is a genius. And here’s an article about the Evolution of the air fryer.

I have shared air fryer recipes here on the blog before and you can check them out on the links in the bottom of this post. Today, I’m sharing my air fryer shrimp recipe.

This is such a simple recipe and yet, so flavorful. I like this paired with steamed brown rice. You can dip it in any dip you want, but I like it as is.

Here’s the recipe for you to try if you like.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. large shrimp (cooked, peeled, deveined, tail-on)
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp. iodized sea salt
• 1/8 tsp. ground pepper

Instructions:

1. Clean the shrimp with water and pat dry with paper towel.
2. Once dry, place the shrimp in a ziploc bag.
3. Pour in olive oil to the bag, coat the shrimp evenly and set aside.
4. In a small bowl, mix all remaining ingredients then pour onto the shrimp.
5. Make sure all shrimps are coated evenly with the mixture.
6. Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees.
7. Arrange shrimp in air fryer in a single layer. Do not crowd shrimp.
8. Cook for 8 minutes.
9. Serve with steamed rice.

All three of us are seafood lovers. We always enjoy a good seafood dish. And this dish is husband-and-teen-son approved. 🙂
