Ingredients
- 1 pound Raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 whole Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This usually takes about 3-5 minutes.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a seasoned oil mixture.
Step 3
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl and toss until all the shrimp are evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
Step 4
Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding, ensuring crispiness.
Step 5
Air fry the shrimp at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through the cooking process for even browning.
Step 6
Once cooked, the shrimp should be pink and opaque with a crispy exterior. Remove them from the air fryer using tongs.
Step 7
Serve immediately with lemon wedges to squeeze over the top for added zest and freshness.
