FROZEN SHRIMP IN THE AIR FRYER



Frozen Shrimp in the Air Fryer image

I would love to say I plan every meal down to the last detail. Not! Sometimes, I have to create a "dinner on the fly," doing a quick run down of likely ingredients while I am stuck in traffic. On those occasions, there is really nothing faster than shrimp. I usually have a bag of raw, cleaned shrimp in the freezer, and let me tell you, they have saved dinner, from time to time! Easy, quick, and simple, these shrimp prepared in an air fryer become an appetizer with the addition of your favorite sauce, or the main event, atop a dinner salad, with a lovely vinaigrette.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound frozen raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
4 wedges fresh lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes.
  • While the air fryer is heating, separate frozen shrimp if necessary and knock off any ice crystals that may have developed with a spoon.
  • Place a single layer of frozen shrimp, about 1/2 pound, in the cooking area of the preheated air fryer and cook for 4 minutes.
  • Combine melted butter, seafood seasoning, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
  • When the timer sounds, brush each shrimp with seasoned butter, turn over, and brush the other side as well. Air-fry until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 4 more minutes. Repeat with remaining shrimp.

Tips:

  • Preheat your air fryer: Make sure preheat your air fryer for a few minutes before placing frozen breaded shrimp. This helps create a crispy coating.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket: Leave enough space between the shrimp so that the hot air can circulate freely.
  • Cook the shrimp in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of shrimp, cook them in batches to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking: This helps the shrimp cook evenly and prevents them from sticking together.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery. Cook them until they are golden brown and opaque, about 5-8 minutes.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Air-fried breaded shrimp is best served hot and crispy. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

Air-frying frozen breaded shrimp is quick, easy, and mess-free. With just a few simple steps, you can enjoy delicious, crispy shrimp without the need for deep-frying. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give air-fried frozen breaded shrimp a try. You won't be disappointed!
