Spicy shrimp is a light appetizer made by briefly marinating peeled shrimp in a garlic and olive oil mixture and quickly cooking them in an air fryer. The air fryer’s intense heat turns the shrimp pink without overcooking them.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the shrimp

5 min

Clean and peel the shrimp.

2

Prepare the marinade

5 min

Crush the garlic and mix it with the olive oil, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and salt.

3

Marinate

5 min

Toss the shrimp with the marinade and let stand for 5 minutes.

4

Cook in the air fryer

10 min

Preheat the air fryer to 190°C / 375°F. Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the basket and cook for 6 minutes, until pink. If you do not have an air fryer, you can get the same result by baking them in an oven preheated to 190°C / 375°F for 8 minutes.

5

Serve

2 min

Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Reminder

Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket; they will not cook evenly if piled on top of one another. Do not overcook them; even 2 extra minutes can make shrimp rubbery. Allergen: contains shellfish (shrimp).

Marinasyonu 5 dakika yaptım ama karideslerim büyük boy olduğu için tadı yeterince içine işlemedi, biraz daha uzun bekletmem gerekirmiş. Airfryer süresi ise gerçekten tam kıvamındaydı.

Karidesleri marine ederken 5 dakika yerine daha uzun bekletsem tat daha mı yoğun olur, yoksa limon suyu eti yumuşatıp dağıtır mı? Ayrıca donmuş karideslerle de deniyor musunuz?

Karidesleri 6 dakika yerine 9 dakika pişirdim çünkü rengi hâlâ açık görünüyordu, sonuçta dokusu oldukça lastik gibi sertleşti. Süreyi tam tutturmak galiba biraz deneme gerektiriyor.
