Notes
- Shrimp: Find small to medium-sized shrimp that so they cook evenly and get tender.
- Tails: You can leave the tail on the shrimp or remove it, whatever you prefer.
- Marinating: Give the shrimp enough time to marinate in the sauce.
- Cook time: If you overcook the shrimp, it will get rubbery. Be sure to remove the shrimp from the air fryer as soon as it's done.
- Seasonings: Get creative with the seasonings. Try adding onion powder, paprika, or lemon pepper, or kick up the spice with Cajun seasoning.
