Air Fryer Frozen Wild Caught Gulf Shrimp Recipe
Here's a simple and delicious recipe for cooking frozen shrimp in an air fryer:
Ingredients
1 pound frozen Wild Caught Gulf shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on or off)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat the Air Fryer
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Prepare the Shrimp
In a bowl, toss the frozen shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika (if using), salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Air Fry the Shrimp
Place the seasoned shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Cooking Time
Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking. The shrimp should be opaque and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Serve
Remove the shrimp from the air fryer and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Tips
Do Not Thaw: There's no need to thaw the shrimp before cooking; they can go straight from the freezer to the air fryer.
Adjust Seasoning: Feel free to adjust the seasonings according to your taste. You can add cayenne pepper for a spicy kick or Italian seasoning for a different flavor.
Pairing Ideas: Serve the shrimp over rice, in tacos, or with a side of vegetables for a complete meal.
Enjoy your crispy and flavorful air-fried shrimp!
