Notes
- Be sure to peel, devein, and remove the tails from the shrimp before cooking them.
- When you air fry shrimp, be sure to check on them early. Overcooked shrimp will have a rubbery texture, so don’t leave them in too long.
- If you don’t want to use fresh garlic, you can use ¼ teaspoon garlic powder instead of two fresh garlic cloves.
- Once you try this seasoning mix, have fun experimenting with other spices in your pantry! The possibilities are endless to come up with all kinds of shrimp recipes.
- This is a great dish for parties, but don’t leave the shrimp out at room temperature for more than two hours. If it’s hot, you should refrigerate them even sooner.
