Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos -- Get ready to embark on a culinary journey that's a fusion of flavors, textures, and pure delight with our Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos recipe!

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • Olive oil, for drizzling
  • 6 small flour tortillas
  • 1 cup lettuce, shredded
  • 1 cup tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons Sour cream
  • 2 slices avocado, sliced
  • 1 whole Lime wedges, for serving
  • 1 teaspoon Hot sauce, optional

Instructions

  • Season the Shrimp: In a bowl, toss the peeled and deveined shrimp with taco seasoning until they are evenly coated.
  • Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle the seasoned shrimp with olive oil to help them crisp up in the air fryer. Toss to coat.
  • Air Fry the Shrimp: Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 5-7 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are pink and crispy.
  • Warm the Tortillas: While the shrimp are cooking, you can warm the tortillas. You can do this in the air fryer for about 1-2 minutes or wrap them in foil and heat in a low oven.
  • Assemble the Tacos: To assemble each taco, place a tortilla on a plate. Add a handful of shredded lettuce, a few pieces of crispy shrimp, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, and fresh cilantro leaves. If desired, top with sour cream, sliced avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Add hot sauce for an extra kick.
  • Serve: Serve your Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos hot with lime wedges on the side for an added burst of citrusy flavor.
  • Enjoy: Dive into the delightful combination of crispy shrimp, fresh toppings, and bold flavors. These shrimp tacos are a treat for your taste buds!
