3-Step Execution Protocol
1
Preheat & Prep
Preheat air-fryer to 390°F (199°C). Place shrimp (roasted, jumbo) (Large raw shrimp (21/25 count), peeled and deveined, patted completely dry, seasoned with oil and cajun spice) in a single layer with space between items for convection airflow. Spray lightly with high-smoke-point oil.
2
Cook & Flip
Cook for 5–7 mins. Flip or shake basket at the 3-minute mark for even browning.
3
Check & Rest
Curled into loose 'C' shape, opaque pearlescent pink, firm to springy touch. Confirm internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) internal. Rest for 1 minutes before serving.
Verification Basis & Testing Rig
USDA FSIS Safe Seafood Minimum (145°F); Ninja Foodi Seafood Timetable (390°F / 5-7 min).
Pro Tip: Pull when shrimp form a 'C'. If they curl into a tight 'O', they have overcooked and turned rubbery.
