Friday Night Shrimp & Champagne Fun
What You Need:
For Shrimp:
- Medium or Large Air Fryer with Basket
- 2 Lbs. Shrimp (uncooked, with shells on)
- 3 Tbsp. Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 1 C. Water
- Ice
- 1 Lemon (cut into wedges, for serving)
- St. Elmo’s Cocktail Sauce (for serving)
For Champagne:
- To celebrate a good week, we recommend Mumm Napa brut champagne or rosé. Affordable, refreshing, and delicious.
- To celebrate a great week, we recommend splurging on our favorite—Veuve Clicquot brut rosé. Pricey, but worth it for celebrating big wins.
Directions:
- Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees for approximately 5-10 minutes.
- Remove thawed fresh shrimp from store packaging and rinse with water. Drain excess water on paper towel while preparing other items.
- Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning over shrimp evenly, then toss shrimp to distribute seasoning.
- Remove air fryer basket, and add water into the bottom.
- Place seasoned shrimp in basket, and add basket to air fryer.
- Important: It’s easy to overcook shrimp! Cook shrimp for three minutes, then check to see if shells are turning a bright pink color. Shake the shrimp in the basket. You will likely cook about five minutes total.
- Chill shrimp in a platter on ice before eating along with lemon slices and cocktail sauce.
