SHRIMP SCAMPI FROM 'EVERY DAY EASY AIR FRYER'

Steps:

• 1. Place a 7-inch round baking pan in the air-fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 325°F for 8 minutes (this will preheat the pan so the butter will melt faster).
• 2. Carefully remove the pan from the fryer and add the butter, lemon juice, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Place the pan back in the fryer.
• 3. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring once, until the butter has melted. (Do not skip this step; this is what infuses the butter with garlic flavor, which is what makes it all taste so good.).
• 4. Carefully remove the pan from the fryer and add the shrimp, broth, basil, and chives. Stir gently until the ingredients are well combined.
• 5. Return the pan to the air fryer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring once.
• 6. Thoroughly stir the shrimp mixture and let it rest for 1 minute on a wire rack. (This is so the shrimp cooks in the residual heat rather than getting overcooked and rubbery.).
• 7. Stir once more, sprinkle with additional chopped fresh basil, and serve.

AIR FRYER SHRIMP SCAMPI

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Zest the lemon in strips using a peeler, making sure to avoid the white pith. Cut the lemon in half, then cut one half into wedges for serving. Reserve the other half for squeezing.
• Put the lemon zest, shrimp, thyme, garlic, bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a cake pan and toss to combine. Spread the mixture out in the pan and dot the butter on top. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Put the cake pan in the air fryer and cook until the butter is bubbling and the shrimp are opaque, 10 to 12 minutes. While the shrimp cook, boil the pasta according to the package instructions.
• Discard the lemon zest, bay leaf and thyme from the shrimp mixture. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Pour the shrimp mixture over the pasta. Add the parsley and olive oil, squeeze in the juice from the reserved lemon half and toss to combine. Serve with lemon wedges.
