WHAT’S IN IT

9 ounces raw shrimp, shell and tails removed

WHAT’S IN IT

Combine almond flour, unsweetened coconut and seasonings in a medium sized bowl.

Dip raw shrimp in egg white and add to almond flour coconut mixture and toss to coat.

Place shrimp in an air fryer and spray lightly with cooking spray.

Cook at 400 degrees for 4 minutes. Open the basket and flip shrimp to the other side. Spray lightly with cooking spray.

Cook for an additional 4 minutes or until crisp. (Do not over cook shrimp or they will be dry.)

I sprinkled Trader Joe's 21 Seasoning Salute over cooked shrimp to finish it off. Enjoy!
