Cajun Shrimp Boil In The Air Fryer Recipes

CAJUN SHRIMP BOIL IN THE AIR FRYER

Steps:

• Begin by being sure the potatoes have been par-boiled. We use small potatoes, cut in half for this recipe.
• Once the potatoes are done, combine the remaining ingredients into a large bowl, mixing well.
• Place a sheet of foil into your air fryer, being sure that air is still able to circulate.
• Add in about 1/2 of the mixture on top of the foil to fill the air fryer basket. Note - We used a 4-quart air fryer basket, so we made this amount in 2 batches.
• Once the ingredients are added, spray with a nice coat of olive oil spray.
• Cook at 390 degrees for 6 minutes.
• Open up the air fryer, carefully mix the ingredients.
• Cook for an additional 6 minutes.
• Repeat these steps for the next batch if needed.
• Serve.

AIR FRYER SHRIMP "BOIL"

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl. Add water and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Run the bowl under cold water until potatoes are cool enough to touch.
• Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and place in a large bowl. Add sausage, corn, and onion. Mix in 3 tablespoons olive oil and 2 teaspoons seafood seasoning; stir to coat.
• Place shrimp in a separate bowl and add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning; stir to coat.
• Place 1/2 of the potato mixture in the basket of the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes. Stir and cook for another 5 minutes. Add 1/2 of the shrimp and cook until potatoes are tender, sausage is cooked through, and shrimp are bright pink on the outside and meat is opaque, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a serving plate and repeat with remaining potato mixture and shrimp. Serve with lemon wedges.

CAJUN SHRIMP BOIL

Steps:

• Fill a very large (24-quart) pot with 8 quarts of water set over high heat. Add seasoning pouches, cayenne, salt, onions and celery. Squeeze lemon juice, and add wedges. Break garlic into cloves, and discard excess skin, then add unpeeled cloves. Cover the pot, and bring to a rolling boil.
• Lay corn on a baking sheet in a single layer, then place in freezer.
• Taste the water after it comes to a boil. It should be very heavily salted and spiced, with a bright orange foam (when standing near the boiling pot causes you to cough, it's spicy enough).
• Add potatoes and sausage to the pot, and let the water return to a boil. Turn off heat, and allow to soak for 10 minutes or until potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Bring the water to a boil, and add shrimp. Cook for 3 minutes, then turn off heat, add corn and allow to soak for 7 minutes. Drain, and serve immediately with rémoulade (preferably on a newspaper-lined table).

• Cook in the air fryer for 4 minutes. Flip the shrimp and cook until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 2 more minutes. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook the shrimp in 2 batches.
