Pro Tip

If you use frozen shrimp, it should be fully defrosted prior to marinating.

Step 1

Add all of the ingredients to a large ziplock baggie and shake to combine. Place the baggie in the refrigerator and allow the shrimp to marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to an hour.

Step 2

Place the shrimp in the basket of your air fryer, being careful not to overlap them. Discard the marinade. Air fry them at 400°F for 4-6 minutes.

Step 3

Serve! We love this shrimp over rice, in tacos, or by themselves with vegetables.
