Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Shrimp
Ingredients:
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/8teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup seasoned panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions:
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels to help the coating stick. Place them in a bowl and toss with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
In a separate shallow bowl, mix the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, and half of the chopped parsley.
Press each shrimp into the breadcrumb mixture, gently pressing to ensure it sticks. Repeat until all the shrimp are coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes. Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket (you may need to work in batches). Air fry for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. The shrimp should be pink and cooked through.
Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve with fresh lemon wedges for a zesty finish!
