Shrimp: Large or Jumbo Shrimp Salt and Pepper: Just to taste Olive Oil: Adds a nice mild flavor Red Wine Vinegar: Helps marinate the flavors into the shrimp Garlic: If you don’t have fresh garlic cloves then you can use minced garlic from the jar instead. 1/2 teaspoon equals about 1 clove of garlic.

Making Perfect Air Fryer Shrimp
You will need to plan on marinating the shrimp for at least an hour before adding it to the air fryer. It gives the shrimp so much flavor!
Frozen: You can use frozen shrimp but make sure they are thawed before you marinate them. Overcrowd: Don’t put too many in the air fryer basket. It needs to be able to circulate the hot air around the shrimp to cook them. Cook in batches if needed. Flip it: Flip the shrimp halfway through if you prefer. Tails: Removing the tails is also a preference thing. I left them on.
In the Fridge: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat: You can reheat leftovers in the air fryer. Don’t reheat shrimp in the microwave, it will make them soggy.
