Air Fryer Popcorn Shrimp
Ingredients:
- 1lb shrimp, deveined, peeled, cleaned, thawed
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups panko bread crumbs
- 1 tsp Old Bay
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- Olive Oil nonstick cooking spray
Instructions:
Add cleaned shrimp to a bowl.
Mix all of the seasonoings together and sprinkle 1/4 of the seasoning on the shrimp.
Mix well.
Add 1/4 seasoning to the flour, then sprinkle over the shrimp and toss coating each.
Add remaining seasoning to the bread crumbs.
Beat the egg and now you should have 3 bowls: Seasoned Shrimp with Flour, Beaten Eggs, and Panko.
Dip each shrimp in the egg mixture then in breading.
Set aside while the air fryer heats (this gives the breading time to stick).
Heat the air fryer to 400 degrees.
Spray the basket or air fryer sheets with non-stick.
Lay down the shrimp, non-stacked.
Cook for 4 mins on each side, spray with Olive oil spray when flipping.
Repeat for each batch (I had 3 batches).
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
