Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator and arrange shrimp in a single layer in the basket of an air fryer. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Notes

A pound of medium shrimp will be about 45-50 shrimps. We add 3-4 shrimp per lettuce wrap, making about 12 lettuce wraps or 3 per serving.

If you're starting with pre-cooked shrimp, follow the recipe but cook for just 4-5 minutes to warm it through.
