Keto Crunchy Fried Shrimp

It is hard to get a crunchy, crispy, fried shrimp texture without adding breading to the shrimp – but we’re using simple grated parmesan cheese and high heat to get a crunch that won’t break your macros.

This isn’t just for keto eaters – it’s a super simple gluten free trick you can use with pretty much any food for an extra crunchy bite!

Using grated parmesan is essential to this recipe – it will help to give a crunchy, crispy, “breaded” texture without adding any bread or carbs.

I personally prefer drier, less expensive grated cheese for this – since it will have a more breadcrumb like texture. Look for brands that are shelf-stable for this (I use Kraft, but any are good.)

How To Air Fry Shrimp

Air frying shrimp is easy – simply toss in parmesan cheese and spices to coat, place in air fryer basket, and cook – but there are a couple of tips and tricks to make sure its fabulous, every time.

-Don’t overcook.

Shrimp when overcooked are gummy, fishy, and chewy – no fun! Cook shrimp until just pink and no longer translucent.

-Remove tails or keep on – it’s up to you.

Can I use frozen shrimp?

Thaw shrimp in the refrigerator or in a cold water bath before air frying shrimp. Pat dry to remove any water for best texture.

Should I leave tails on or take them off?

You can take the shrimp tails off, or leave them on – totally up to you!
Some people like to eat the crunchy part of the shrimp tail (similar to soft shell crab), some people like to present shrimp tails on, and some people prefer it off when cooking for easy eating – do what works for you!
