Description
These crispy air fryer frozen coconut shrimp take only 10 minutes to make! Straight from the freezer into the air fryer. They come out with a crunchy, golden brown coating and a tender and juicy inside.
Ingredients
Scale
- 10 - 14 frozen coconut shrimp
- dipping sauce of choice (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 390F for 10 minutes.
- Once preheated, add the frozen shrimp to the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overlap the shrimp.
- Cook for 10 minutes, flipping the shrimp halfway through the cooking time. Keep a close eye on the shrimp in the last couple minutes to make sure they don’t overcook or burn.
- Remove them from the air fryer and serve with any optional toppings or dipping sauces. Enjoy!
Notes
- Adjust the cooking time based on the size of the shrimp. I use medium sized shrimp for this recipe. However, if you have jumbo coconut shrimp, cook the shrimp for an extra 2-4 minutes. If you are using very small shrimp, cook them for 2-3 fewer minutes.
- Optional Toppings: Top with a spritz of fresh lime juice, cilantro, fresh mint, drizzle of honey or red chili flakes.
- Optional Dipping Sauces: Serve with sweet chili sauce, pina colada sauce or spicy mango dipping sauce.
