Ingredients:

Shrimp
 1 lb Argentine red shrimp, raw
 ½ tsp White pepper
 1 tsp Chinese five spice powder
 1 ½ tbsp Garlic, minced
 2 tbsp Soy sauce
 ¾ cup Coarse potato starch
 1 Egg (egg white only, no yolk)
 1 Second spray cooking oil
 ½ cup California walnuts
Sauce
 4 tbsp Light mayo
 1 tbsp Honey
 ½ tbsp Lemon juice
 ½ tsp Salt

Preparation:

1

In a bowl, mix together white pepper, Chinese 5 spice powder, garlic, soy sauce, and egg white to make your marinade.

2

Add your shrimp pieces into the marinade and set aside for 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.

3

Pour your potato starch onto a plate. Let the excess marinade drip off of your shrimp before fully coating your pieces into the potato starch.

4

Coat your air fryer tray with cooking spray, and place your shrimp coated with potato starch into the tray. Lightly spray your shrimp with more oil.

5

Cook in your air fryer at 390°F for 13-15 minutes, flipping shrimp halfway through or until crispy and golden brown.

6

Add in your California Walnuts on top of the cooked shrimp and continue air frying for another 2 minutes.

7

In a bowl, mix together light mayo, honey, lemon juice, and salt to make your sauce.

8

This recipe makes two portions, so plate half your shrimp and California Walnuts and coat with half of your sauce.
