Super light and crispy popcorn shrimp made in an air fryer. I like to leave the tails on as a handle but feel free to remove them. Serve with cocktail sauce and lemon wedges if desired.

I didn't have an air fryer, so I cooked the shrimp in the oven. They turned out just as crispy and flavorful.

The shrimp were a bit dry. I think I'll add more moisture next time.

The batter was a bit too thick. I think I'll use less flour next time.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less oil.

I'm not a huge fan of popcorn shrimp, but this recipe was actually really good. The shrimp were crispy and juicy, and the batter was flavorful. I served it with a side of tartar sauce and everyone loved it.
