Air Fryer Shrimp Scampi is made with large shrimp, butter, garlic, white wine; air fry at 400°F for 8 minutes to serve 4. 250 calories per serving.
Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Toss shrimp with melted butter, garlic, white wine, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
- 2
Place in an oven-safe dish or foil pan that fits the air fryer.
- 3
Air fry at 400°F for 6-8 minutes, stirring once, until shrimp are pink and curled.
- 4
Garnish with parsley and lemon zest.
- 5
Serve over pasta or with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
Tip: Don't overcook shrimp — they go from perfect to rubbery in about 60 seconds. They're done when they curl into a C shape; an O shape means overcooked. The pan juices become the sauce, so use good butter and wine.
Why Air Fry This?
- 🌊Gentle, even heat cooks fish through without drying it out — no flipping required.
