Ingredients
  

For the Shrimp
  • 1 pound large peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil light drizzle
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
Optional Garnishes
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped fresh

Equipment

  • Air fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by rinsing the peeled and deveined shrimp under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels. In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp with minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss everything to coat the shrimp evenly.
  2. Set your air fryer to preheat at 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  3. Carefully place the seasoned shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding the basket for even cooking.
  4. Cook the shrimp in the air fryer for about 6-8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
  5. Once the shrimp turns golden, sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
  6. Carefully remove the shrimp and serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley and lemon wedges.
