Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup gluten-free panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- olive oil spray
- as needed lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs and set aside.
In another bowl, combine gluten-free panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In a third bowl, place the gluten-free all-purpose flour.
Dredge each shrimp in the flour, shaking off excess, dip into the beaten eggs, then coat well with the seasoned panko breadcrumbs.
Arrange the breaded shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap. Lightly spray them with olive oil.
Air fry the shrimp for 5 minutes, then flip them over, spray lightly with olive oil again, and continue to air fry for another 3-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove shrimp from the air fryer and transfer to a serving plate.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
