Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Shrimp

Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Shrimp is pure crispity crunchity deliciousness!

It’s a very simple snack, appetizer, or dinner recipe that everyone in my family loves.

This was part of our snacky snack dinner last night.

You know, those days when you ate a big lunch and just sort of graze on a few things for dinner instead of making a big meal.

Yep, we have those quite often 🙂

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 10 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 10 minutes and let them go a little longer of needed.

I wish I was one of those people who just ate food the way it is, but no…nope, I need a sauce for just about everything.

So 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.

These Garlic Parmesan Air Fryer Shrimp did not last long in my house!
