How to make Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Shrimp

This is one pound of jumbo shrimp that I peeled and deveined.

One trick to making sure the egg and panko stick is patting the shrimp dry with paper towels.

My breading station is set up below as you can see.

One egg beaten in a bowl.

And a mixture of panko bread crumbs, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, kosher salt, and pepper.

Dip each shrimp into the egg and then into the panko mixture.

Pressing the panko into the shrimp helps it stick as well.

Also breading the shrimp quickly is a must because that panko mixture becomes real soggy, real fast.

Into the air fryer in a single layer they go, with a little spray of olive oil cooking spray over top.

Set the air fryer for 8 to 12 minutes at 400 degrees.

Depending on how brown you like the panko and the size of the shrimp the cook time may vary a bit.

Peek at them at 8 minutes and let them go a little longer if needed.

If you’re a saucy person like me just mix some ranch dressing with more parmesan cheese and garlic powder and dip away, my friends.
