Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 pound frozen shrimp (21-30 count)
- 1 teaspoon blackening seasoning
- Olive oil spray
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Shrimp: Add the frozen shrimp to the air fryer basket. Ensure all the shrimp are separated and not clumped together to allow even cooking.
- Season the Shrimp: Lightly spray the shrimp with olive oil spray. Sprinkle the blackening seasoning, salt, and pepper evenly over the shrimp to coat them thoroughly.
- Air Fry: Set the air fryer to 400°F (204°C) and cook the shrimp for 10-12 minutes, or until they turn opaque pink and are cooked through, shaking the basket halfway for even cooking if desired.
- Serve: Carefully remove the shrimp from the air fryer and serve immediately. Enjoy as a quick appetizer or add to your favorite dishes.
Notes
- Do not thaw the shrimp before cooking; cook them directly from frozen for best results.
- Adjust blackening seasoning to taste depending on desired spice level.
- If your air fryer basket is small, cook shrimp in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Use peeled and deveined shrimp for easier eating.
