How to Make Air Fryer Shrimp with Yum Yum Sauce
In an attempt to make my life even easier I buy the shrimp that has already been peeled and deveined.
A quick marinade for the shrimp is simply soy sauce, garlic paste, and ginger paste.
I prefer using the garlic and ginger paste because it coats the shrimp more evenly.
Let the shrimp marinate for about 20 minutes or so.
I find that if you let shrimp marinate too long it tends to become tough.
Then into the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Depending on the size of your air fryer it may need to be done in two batches.
Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
While the shrimp were marinating, I made the Yum Yum Sauce.
I used light mayo, ketchup, sugar, paprika, and garlic powder to make this amazing sauce whose name describes it perfectly…YUM YUM!
Air Fryer Shrimp with Yum Yum Sauce would be great as an appetizer or served as a meal with rice or cauliflower rice.
