Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • teaspoon garlic granules
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled, deveined, and tails removed
  • Perforated parchment paper
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  2. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss gently to coat each piece with the butter and seasoning mixture.
  3. Line the air fryer basket with perforated parchment paper to prevent the shrimp from sticking.

Adjusted the cooking time and temperature to 8 minutes at 330°F following the instructions in my air fryer manual. The shrimp turned out perfectly cooked.

As a newcomer to the air fryer, I tried out this recipe and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. It was simple and quick to make, and I enjoyed it over whole wheat spaghetti. I will certainly be making this dish again in the future.

First time trying to air fry shrimp. The ingredients were good, but I found that cooking them for 8 minutes at 400 degrees was a bit too long, resulting in a slightly rubbery texture. Despite that, the shrimp was still tasty.
