Air Fryer Shrimp Recipe

Sure! Here’s a simple recipe for air fryer shrimp:

Ingredients:

• 1 pound (450 grams) of large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
• Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
3. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss them in the seasoned oil mixture until they are evenly coated.

5. Cook the shrimp in the air fryer for 5-6 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The shrimp should be pink and opaque when they’re done. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become rubbery.

7. If desired, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and garnish with chopped parsley.
