Instructions
- Mix the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until the shrimp is ready.
- Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F. If your air fryer does not have a preheat option, then set the air fryer to 390 degrees F and run for 5 minutes.
- Place the flour in 1 bowl, beat the eggs together in a separate bowl and combine the bread crumbs and seasoning together in a 3rd bowl.
- Coat the shrimp in the flour mixture, then dip the shrimp in the eggs and then coat in the breadcrumbs mixture.
- Complete this process with the remaining shrimp.
- Spray the shrimp with the cooking spray.
- Add the shrimp to the air fryer basket in a single layer (you may have to cook in batches). Cook for 4 minutes at 390 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Flip the shrimp and spray the other side with the cooking spray as well.
- Cook for 4 more minutes.
- Follow the same process until all the shrimp is cooked.
- Serve with the chilled sauce and enjoy!
Notes
- If you use frozen shrimp, make sure that the shrimp is fully defrosted out and pat dry with paper towels before coating them.
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.
