Crunchy Shrimp with Garlic & Cheese (Printable Version)
# What You’ll Need:
→ Shrimp Prep
01 -
1 pound big shrimp, shells and veins removed
02 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
03 -
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
04 -
1 teaspoon paprika
05 -
½ teaspoon salt
06 -
½ teaspoon black pepper
→ Finishing Touches
07 -
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
08 -
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
09 -
Lemon slices
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Get your air fryer hot at 400°F (200°C) by running it empty for about 5 minutes.
02 -
Grab a bowl and toss your cleaned shrimp with olive oil, chopped garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until they're all covered evenly.
03 -
Throw the shredded Parmesan over your shrimp and mix softly so they're all coated well.
04 -
Spray a bit of cooking oil in the air fryer basket so nothing sticks.
05 -
Lay the shrimp flat in one layer in the basket. Cook them for 6-8 minutes, giving the basket a shake halfway through. They should turn golden and be fully cooked.
06 -
Take the shrimp out carefully and put them on a plate. Sprinkle with the fresh parsley and add lemon slices on the side.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Always start with uncooked shrimp - already cooked ones won't turn out right.
02 -
Feel free to add more or less garlic depending on what you like.
03 -
These shrimp go great with some pasta or a green salad on the side.
04 -
You can keep any extras in a sealed container in your fridge for up to 2 days. Warm them up in the air fryer for the best taste.
