Add 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil to the peeled shrimp.

Sprinkle Old Bay seasoning on the shrimp and toss to coat evenly.

Load the seasoned shrimp into the air fryer basket.

Set the air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 9 minutes, checking halfway through.

After about 4-5 minutes, check the shrimp; they should be turning pink but still slightly opaque.

Toss the shrimp and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit and are firm.

Once cooked, transfer the shrimp to a bowl and garnish with dried parsley and a squeeze of lemon.
