How to Make Air Fryer Shrimp with Mango Sauce
I absolutely LOVE using panko bread crumbs when I make shrimp in the air fryer.
They get super crisp and delicious, but I don’t have the guilt of indulging in a deep fried food.
The breading station as you can see below is shrimp that has been peeled, deveined, and pat dry with paper towels.
And a beaten egg in one bowl and a cup of panko bread crumbs in another bowl that’s been mixed with Old Bay seasoning.
Dip each shrimp in the egg first and then into the panko, coating it on both sides.
Then into the air fryer basket in a single layer.
A little spray of olive oil cooking spray over top helps the shrimp to become golden brown.
Set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 8 minutes and then off you go to make the mango sauce 🙂
Cutting a fresh mango has never gone well for me.
Therefore I am using a 10 ounce bag of frozen mango chunks that I have let thaw to room temperature.
Put the mango chunks, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, and Sriracha in a food processor or blender.
Blend for about a minute until the sauce is smooth.
Add the Sriracha according to your spice preference, we are spice fanatics around here.
Add a touch or a little more depending on what you like.
So I’m just going to say just LOOK at this golden brown yumminess!
It’s best to enjoy Air Fryer Shrimp with Mango Sauce right away.
And why would you even want to wait though, right?!
This was our dinner that I served with a side salad and some oven roasted potatoes.
The sauce was even delicious with the potatoes!
