Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Egg whites
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) for about 5 minutes.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, lemon zest, and panko breadcrumbs.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, place the flour.
Step 4
In a third bowl, lightly beat the egg whites until frothy.
Step 5
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel to ensure crispiness.
Step 6
Dip each shrimp into the flour, shaking off excess, then into the egg whites, and finally coat evenly with the seasoned panko breadcrumb mixture.
Step 7
Lightly spray or brush the shrimp with olive oil to enable browning.
Step 8
Place the coated shrimp in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap as this can prevent them from getting crispy.
Step 9
Cook in the preheated air fryer for 5 minutes, then flip the shrimp and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the shrimp are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Serve immediately with lemon wedges or your choice of dipping sauce.
