How to cook best shrimp kabobs in the Air Fryer
For this recipe i used medium size raw shrimp, that i bought frozen. I thawed shrimp overnight in the fridge, but you can easily just leave it outside for about an hour.
The marinade is very easy but very delicious. Juice fresh lime– roll it on the table for a few seconds before squeezing, it will help to get more juice out.
And minced garlic and mix well. The shrimp is best cooked in the air fryer for no more then 7-8 minutes, otherwise it can get rubbery and dry.
We love different shrimp recipes. I have a similar shrimp recipe, but made on the stove. Check it out- Honey garlic lime glazed shrimp
To make sure your skewers fit in the air fryer, measure them. My Air Fryer can easily fit 5 full 6 inch shrimp skewers.
Don’t forget to soak wooden skewers in the water for 20 minutes!
Once the shrimp is cooked, you can serve it right on the skewers.
This shrimp skewers (kabobs) are Weight watchers friendly! KETO, PALEO and WHOLE30 !

The flavors in this recipe are perfect for my family. While I used the George Foreman grill in lieu of my Ninja Foodi, I want to thank Berry&Maple for posting as I would not have tried it otherwise.
