How to Prepare the Shrimp
One of my favorite ways to cook shrimp is by using my air fryer! It’s simple and so quick to make delicious shrimp at home!
Season your shrimp with your desired seasonings, spray with olive oil, and cook them in the air fryer at 370 for 5-7 minutes.
You can use a thermometer to confirm your desired internal temperature or watch for the shrimp to turn pink.
Full recipe and instructions are written out on the recipe card below.
How to Prepare the Pineapple Salsa
- 2 cups diced fresh pineapple
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
- 3 tablespoons chopped jalapeno
- One large lime, juiced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- One teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon chili lime seasoning
Combine a medium bowl of pineapple, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño, and lime juice. Stir until well combined—season with salt, honey, and chili lime seasoning to taste. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Other Toppings and Taco Add-ons
I like to serve these shrimp tacos on a warm corn tortilla with pineapple salsa, cilantro lime dressing, fresh lime wedges, and avocado slices.
You can make your homemade cilantro lime dressing, or they sell it by the bottle at Costco.
Feel free to add any other toppings you love! Cotjia, pickled onions, jalapenos, and cabbage would be wonderful additions, too!
