Easy Air Fryer Shrimp
Description
Easy Air Fryer Shrimp combines peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp with a blend of dried herbs and spices including smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. The olive oil and lemon juice help the seasonings adhere and add brightness. Cooking at 400°F in the air fryer gives the shrimp a lightly crisp exterior while keeping them juicy inside.
The shrimp can be cooked on skewers or directly in the air fryer basket, ensuring even heat exposure. The recipe yields a versatile dish that works well as an appetizer or a main protein served alongside salads, rice, or vegetables.
