Calories: 326kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp, tails on (16-25 count)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt, separated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- Nonstick cooking spray (such as canola or avocado oil cooking spray)
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
- Add the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder to a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Add the shrimp, seal the bag, and shake to coat. Set aside.
- Have ready two rimmed, shallow bowls or trays. In the first tray, mix together 2 large eggs and 2 tablespoons of water. In the second tray, combine the panko breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper.
- Remove the shrimp from the flour mix and shake off the excess. Working in 2-3 batches, coat the shrimp entirely in the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off. Then, coat thoroughly with the panko breading, pressing to adhere as necessary.
- Transfer the shrimp to a breaded work surface and spray generously all over, on both sides, with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add the shrimp to the air fryer in a single layer and cook for 6-8 minutes. Transfer cooked shrimp to a cooling rack placed over a rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining shrimp. Allow to cool slightly, serve, and enjoy.
