  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, combine the shrimp, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  2. Arrange shrimp in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Mist lightly with oil spray if desired.

  5. Let the cooked shrimp cool slightly.
  6. Serve the chili crisp shrimp generously drizzled with chili oil over your chosen base or as a standalone appetizer.
