Air Fryer Shrimp Zucchini and Peppers

Air Fryer Shrimp Zucchini and Peppers

Air Fryer Shrimp Zucchini and Peppers was full of cheesy, garlicky flavor and the veggies were perfectly cooked yet still crisp.

Another fabulous complete meal for you to try in the air fryer, friends…

And this one is very healthy (bonus points for any of us trying to get back on track after the holidays).

Cooking and cleanup were both a snap thanks to my good friend, Mr. Air Fryer 🙂

How to Make Air Fryer Shrimp Zucchini and Peppers

The first step is peeling and deveining a pound of jumbo shrimp, then patting them dry with paper towels.

Next up is chopping the zucchini and peppers. I tried to get them around 1/4 inch thick.

The veggies go into a bowl with the shrimp.

Then add olive oil, grated parmesan cheese, garlic, kosher salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

I love using garlic paste, so easy and you can find it in the fresh herb section of the store.

Give it a toss with some tongs until evenly mixed.

This did take me about a minute or so to make sure all the veggies and shrimp had an even amount of seasoning.

This mixture will fit perfectly in a 5.8 quart air fryer.

Try to get it spread as even as possible with some overlapping.

If you happen to have a smaller air fryer, no worries…just make this in two separate batches 🙂

Set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 15 minutes, and shake the basket halfway through cooking.

This gorgeousness is what will await you!

And not to mention how amazingly garlicky your kitchen will smell…YUM!

I enjoyed Air Fryer Shrimp Zucchini and Peppers just like this.

My kids and husband had theirs over some fettuccini alfredo that I made.

Nothing fancy, just a box of boiled fettuccini mixed with a jar of alfredo sauce.

This way I could eat healthy, and they were still happy as could be.
