Here’s a recipe for your air fryer that you are going to be making all the time. This makes the perfect snack for Sunday games or for a quick and easy hors d’oeuvre. Instead of using panko or regular breadcrumbs, this recipe calls for crushed pork rinds for your coating.
If you don’t have an air fryer, simply fry the coated shrimp in a pan with at least two inches of olive oil in it. If you use frozen shrimp, you just need to make sure they have been completely thawed and dried. If you use shrimp that is pre-cooked, it could get tough and chewy since they have already been cooked.
