Air Fryer Bang Bang Fried Shrimp Food

AIR FRYER BANG BANG FRIED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat Air Fryer to 400 degrees.
• Season the shrimp with the seasonings.
• Place the flour, egg whites, and panko bread crumbs in three separate bowls.
• Create a cooking station. Dip the shrimp in the flour, then the egg whites, and the panko bread crumbs last.
• When dipping the shrimp in the egg whites, you do not need to submerge the shrimp. Do a light dab so that most of the flour stays on the shrimp. You want the egg white to adhere to the panko crumbs.
• Spray the shrimp with cooking oil.
• Add the shrimp to the Air Fryer basket. Cook for 4 minutes. Open the basket and flip the shrimp to the other side. Cook for an additional 4 minutes or until crisp.

Steps:

• For the fried shrimp: Spray the basket of a 3.5-quart air fryer with cooking spray and set aside. Pat the shrimp dry between a couple paper towels, then season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
• Whisk the flour with 3/4 teaspoon salt and few grinds of pepper in a shallow bowl or baking dish. Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt in another shallow bowl. Add the panko to a third shallow bowl. Dip a shrimp in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beaten eggs. Dredge in the panko, turning until evenly coated. Transfer to a large plate or a rimmed baking sheet and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Preheat the air fryer to 385 degrees F. Working in batches, place some of the shrimp in a single layer in the fryer basket, then spray lightly with more cooking spray. Cook until the shrimp are golden brown and cooked through, flipping halfway through, about 10 minutes.
• For the spicy remoulade sauce: Meanwhile, stir together the mayonnaise, pickled jalapenos, mustard, ketchup, hot sauce and scallion in a small bowl until smooth. Serve with the fried shrimp for dipping.

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha and sweet chili sauce until well blended. This will become your bang bang sauce. Set aside.
• Working in batches of 6-8 at a time, coat your shrimp in cornstarch until fully covered. Then coat fully in buttermilk and lastly roll in breadcrumbs until fully covered. Place each coated shrimp in the airfryer. Make sure they do not touch.
• Cook in airfryer on 400 degrees for 5 minutes on one side. When cooking time is complete, drizzle a light coat of avocado oil on the cooked side. Flip each shrimp and drizzle an additional layer of avocado oil on the uncooked side. Return to airfryer and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
• When cooking time is complete, remove shrimp from airfryer and set aside. Repeat until all shrimp are cooked.
• In a medium mixing bowl, cover all of the shrimp with the bang bang sauce. Lightly toss until the shrimp are fully covered in sauce.
• Top with parsley (optional) and serve immediately on top of a bed of rice or on their own!
