Description

Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Shrimp offers perfectly crispy shrimp bursting with garlic and plant-based parmesan (plant-based) flavor. This quick and healthy recipe features a crunchy coating made from panko breadcrumbs and fresh herbs, air fried to golden perfection. Ideal as an appetizer, main course, or snack, it delivers bold, savory notes with a bright splash of lemon juice (natural flavoring).

Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp

  • 1 pound fresh or thawed medium-sized shrimp, peeled and deveined

Coating

  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (natural flavoring)
  • 1/3 cup plant-based parmesan (plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (natural flavoring)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Other

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (natural flavoring)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shrimp: Rinse the shrimp thoroughly under cold water and pat dry with paper towels to remove all excess moisture. This ensures the coating adheres well and results in maximum crispiness.
  2. Make the Garlic Parmesan Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic (natural flavoring), plant-based parmesan (plant-based), chopped parsley (natural flavoring), salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to create an even, aromatic coating blend.
  3. Coat the Shrimp: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the shrimp and toss gently until evenly coated. Press each shrimp into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure each piece is thoroughly coated for a crispy finish.
  4. Air Fry the Shrimp: Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Arrange the coated shrimp in a single layer inside the basket without overcrowding. Air fry for 6 to 8 minutes, flipping the shrimp halfway through cooking, until golden and crispy.
  5. Finish with a Bright Touch: Transfer the cooked shrimp to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh lemon juice (natural flavoring) to enhance and balance the flavors with a bright tang.

Notes

  • Preheat your air fryer for consistent crispy results.
  • Dry shrimp thoroughly to avoid soggy coating.
  • Cook shrimp in a single layer to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  • Use fresh garlic (natural flavoring) for a more vibrant and flavorful dish.
  • Do not skip the lemon juice (natural flavoring) finish to balance richness.
  • Apply olive oil lightly to prevent greasiness while aiding crisping.
  • To prevent sticking, lightly brush the air fryer basket with olive oil before cooking.
