Air Fryer Shrimp and Vegetables
I continue to post Air Fryer recipes because for my family, it’s become a key to getting dinner on the table. Maybe I was getting tired of using the stove and oven?
I’m not sure what it is really, but it’s SO FAST! It’s not only fast, but it’s very little clean up and it doesn’t heat up the whole house to cook something.
That’s a win too, surely will be in the summer months.
The Air Fryer has really altered the way I cook. I can easily get dinner done in mere minutes while the kids are playing or doing homework, it just seems like everything taste better in the Air Fryer too.
I have tried so many recipes and will continue to do so. I even saw that you can make Air Fryer Donuts.
I can’t wait to try those! Don’t they sound wonderful? I have a few breakfast ideas in mind too that I plan to try soon in the Air Fryer.
This Air Fryer Shrimp and Vegetables though is high on the list of simple recipes, it’s one of my husband’s favorites so far.
I have actually been purchasing the shrimp and vegetables every week and just adding it in as a go-to for a lunch or dinner if we are in a hurry.
Air Fryer Shrimp is probably one of the easiest things to make in the air fryer. It really does not have to be in the air fryer long to cook either.

I am anxious to try this again with my Honey Garlic sauce for the shrimp. That’s next on my list to try, I bet it will be delicious.

Comments & Reviews
Is the shrimp frozen or thawed?
It’s frozen, you can just run some cold water over it to get any ice off if you want before putting it in the basket.
My air fryer has temp gauges. What Temperature is appropriate for cooking this in a conventional oven?
I would cook it around 350*F, then just check on it about halfway through cooking.
Air Fryer lid or pressure cooker lid?
Use the air fryer lid for this one.
Can I substitute fresh vegetables
Yes that should work, may need to extend the cook time just a bit.
My air fryer goes in 1 degrees so i have it on 360’ i also have fresh veggies w/frozen shrimp, how long do i cook it in air fryer? Rt now i have it set for 9 mins + 9 mins??
I normally do 20 minutes, I would start at 15 and go from there adding time if needed.
I also have the Ninja Foodie Air Fryer. Should I adjust cooking temp or time if I cook this as a sheet pan meal? I want to try with stir fry sauce.
Yes, you would have to watch the cook time and temp since this one is air fryer. I usually do it at 400*F for about 20 minutes in the oven as sheet pan when I do sheet pan shrimp recipes.
Large shrimp. thank you
