Air Fryer Spicy Prawn Skewers

Your air fryer might seem like a simple addition to your kitchen, and you might only dust it off and bring it out occasionally, but your air fryer can deliver a whole host of recipes that really pack a punch. And this recipe is certainly no different. This super simple air fryer recipe delivers plump prawns in a fresh and gently spiced marinade. I am always experimenting with different recipes in my air fryer and this prawn skewer taco dish has become a firm favourite in my house. Prawns are really suited to cooking in the air fryer and this is one of my favourite seafood recipes to air fry. The prawns are just so crispy on the outside and juicy and full of flavour inside. Serve your air fryer prawn skewers with tortilla wraps for an easy taco night feast. These flavoursome air-fryer prawn skewers are lightly spiced with paprika and perfect paired with fresh watercress. Taking just ten minutes to prep and another ten minutes to cook, this really is a speedy and convenient mid week meal.

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the king prawns, chopped red pepper, grated garlic, diced chilli and paprika.

Step 2

Juice half of the lime and add the juice to the bowl, then season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Mix everything together well, making sure to coat all the prawns and red pepper with the seasonings.

Step 4

If you like your food a little spicier then add a little more chilli. Always feel free to adjust the ingredients to your preferred tastes.

Step 5

Leave the prawns to marinate in the fridge for at least an hour, or even overnight.

Step 6

When you are ready to cook them, slide your prawns and pepper pieces onto wooden skewers, alternating between the two.

Step 7

Then spray the skewers with a little olive oil and place them into your air fryer basket. Leave the crisper trays in.

Step 8

Cook at 180ºC for around 8 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through and browning.

Step 9

All air fryers tend to be a little different, so do always check during cooking and adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Step 10

Serve the air fryer prawn skewers on mini tortilla wraps with watercress salad.

Step 11

Squeeze the remaining lime half over the air prawns for an added bite.
