AIR FRYER SHRIMP

Lemon and pepper are used to season this air fryer prawn recipe, making it a tasty, quick and simple supper option!

This recipe for air-fried prawns is low-carb and keto-friendly by accident, but it doesn’t sacrifice flavour.

I liken it to grilled prawns because it quickly cooks fresh prawns and consistently produces deliciously juicy prawns

COMPOSITION

1. One medium raw prawn, peeled and deveined, weighing one pound
2. half a cup of olive oil
3. two tsp lemon juice
4. One tsp black pepper
5. Half a teaspoon of salt

Instructions:

1. Set the temperature of your air fryer to 400°F.
2. Put the prawns, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a Ziploc bag. Mix all components together with care.
3. Place a single layer of raw prawns inside the air fryer and cover with parchment paper, if using.
4. Cook, shaking the basket halfway through, for about 8 minutes. When the prawns become a vibrant pink colour while remaining somewhat white and somewhat opaque, they are done.
5. Enjoy the prawns after taking them out of the air fryer!
