Crispy Air-Fryer Shrimp Recipe
This is a good substitute for deep fried shrimp, and easy to prepare. Recipe courtesy of Spend with Pennies.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
- 1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 3/4 lb large shrimp, with tails peeled and deveined
- cooking spray (I used olive oil because I don't use cooking spray)
Instructions
- Combine flour and half of the seasonings.
- In a separate bowl, combine bread crumbs and remaining seasonings.
- Preheat air fryer 400 F for 5 minutes.
- Toss shrimp in the flour mixture.
- Remove a shrimp from the flour mixture and dip in egg and then into the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
- Lightly spray shrimp with cooking spray (I used olive oil).
- Add a single layer of shrimp to the air fryer basket.
- Cook 4 minutes.
- Flip shrimp over, spritz with cooking spray (I used olive oil) and cook an additional 4 minutes or just until cooked through and crispy.
- Repeat with remaining shrimp.
- Serve with cocktail sauce.
- To reheat, place on a baking sheet in a 350 F oven for up to 10 minutes or until crispy.
