Garlic Shrimp Airfryer (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Seafood

01 - 1 lb of big shrimp, peeled, cleaned, and dried for the best crunch

→ Seasonings & Aromatics

02 - 1/2 tsp onion powder, adding tasty balance

03 - 3 garlic cloves, chopped finely

04 - A teaspoon of garlic powder, boosting the flavor

05 - 2 tbsp olive oil to achieve a golden, shiny look

06 - 1 tsp smoked paprika for a gentle smoky taste

07 - Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, as much as you like

→ For Serving

08 - Chopped fresh parsley, for color and freshness

09 - Juicy lemon wedges for a zesty squeeze at the end

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes. That way, it's nice and hot and ready to cook the shrimp perfectly.

02 - Combine olive oil, garlic (both minced and powdered), smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss in the shrimp and stir until every piece is dressed in the seasoning.

03 - Spread the shrimp out in the air fryer basket, keeping space between them to crisp up properly. Cook for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket lightly halfway to make sure everything cooks evenly.

04 - Move the shrimp to a plate, squeeze some lemon over the top, and sprinkle with parsley. Dig in while they're still hot and crunchy!

# Notes:

01 - Air frying makes your shrimp crispy on the outside and tender inside

02 - Get evenly cooked shrimp by using ones that are similar in size
