Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This takes about 3 minutes.
  2. 2. Pat 200 g of shrimp dry with paper towels. Never rinse them, or they’ll become watery.
  3. 3. Peel 3 cloves of garlic. Remove the hard germ inside each clove.
  4. 4. Chop the garlic very finely. This ensures the flavour spreads evenly.
  5. 5. Chop the parsley finely. Set aside a small spoonful for garnish.
  6. 6. Melt 30 g of butter in a small pan over medium heat. Don't let it brown.
  7. 7. Add the chopped garlic to the butter. Fry it for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  8. 8. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  9. 9. Mix the butter sauce well. It should now smell creamy and aromatic.
  10. 10. Place the dry shrimp in a bowl. Pour the butter sauce over them.
  11. 11. Toss the shrimp until they are completely coated with the sauce.
  12. 12. Place the shrimp in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are in a single, even layer.
  13. 13. Cook the shrimp at 180 °C for 8 minutes, until golden brown. Turn them over after 4 minutes.
  14. 14. Check if they’re done: The shrimp should be pink and opaque. Don't overcook them.
  15. 15. Remove the basket. Let the shrimp rest in the basket for 2 minutes. This helps redistribute the juices.
  16. 16. Serve the shrimp immediately. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley. They are ready when they smell delicious.
