Step 4 Tp pan-fry: Heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the shrimp to one layer. Cook for 1-3 minutes until browned and slightly crispy. Flip and cook on the other side until cooked through, about 1-2 minutes. Grill: Heat the grill over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to a grill basket, thread it onto skewers, or place it on a piece of foil so it doesn’t fall through the grill grates. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until cooked through. Air Fryer: place the shrimp in the basket of an air fryer preheated to 400 degrees. Cook for 5-6 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
