- How To Store Leftover Shrimp
- If you have leftovers place the shrimp in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to three days.
- How To Reheat Leftover Shrimp
- How To Reheat Leftover Shrimp
- To reheat leftover shrimp place back in the air fryer for a few minutes to warm them. Place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for a few minutes. They will dry out quickly so make sure to not overcook them.
- You can also use a microwave and warm them for 30 seconds a time until warmed through.
- We feel that the air fryer is the best option for reheating shrimp and gives the best texture to the shrimp.
- Whether you use fresh shrimp or frozen shrimp, be sure to pat them dry before you cook them. This will make it easier to get a light crust on the shrimp when they cook.
- If you use smaller shrimp, you will need to adjust the cooking time. The nice thing about an air fryer is that it’s easy to check on them while they cook. Once the shrimp are pink and a little curled up, they are done.
- Cook them in a single layer so they cook evenly – don’t pile them in the air fryer. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.
- Store leftover seasoned shrimp in an airtight container. They will keep well in the refrigerator for three to four days.
