Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos with Pineapple Salsa Recipe
Air Fryer Shrimp Tacos with Pineapple Salsa is one of the easiest Shrimp recipes ever. All you have to do is just coat your Shrimps with some oil and spices and then get them air-fried for 5-minutes. Finally, just assemble in tortillas with Pineapple Salsa and serve immediately.
In a medium sized bowl combine Olive Oil, Salt, Pepper, ground cumin, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, smoked paprika. Stir lightly until combined.
Coat shrimps with the marinade and place them in the air fryer basket keeping a gap of at least ½ inch between each shrimp. Do not overcrowd the basket. If you have a lot, then cook it in batches.
Cook in Air Fryer at 400°F or 200°C for 5-6 minutes. No need to flip them.
Assemble your shrimps with pineapple salsa or shredded cabbage in your tortillas.
Finally, air fry your tacos for just 1-2 minutes and then serve right away with some freshly chopped cilantro on top. Squeeze some lime juice on the shrimps (if desired).

Notes
Frozen Shrimps: You can always use frozen shrimps. In fact, In this recipe, I have used frozen shrimps. But make sure you thaw them on the countertop for at least an hour before marinating them.
Do not overcrowd: I have said this thing again and again for almost all air fryer recipes. Do not crowd your air fryer basket. You need to leave some space for the hot air to flow around the basket.
Shrimp Tails - I have kept tails for a few (just for photography purposes). You can remove the tails if you want.
Fliping - There is no need to flip your shrimps. They should be done in about 5-minutes. If you want you can flip over and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
Make-Ahead Instructions
You can make your air fryer shrimps and store them in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Of course, don't forget to keep it in an air-tight container. When you want to serve, just arrange them in a tortilla and cook in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes at 350°F.
