If you are looking for a healthier crispy, sweet and mildly spicy dish, definitely give this a try! Instead of frying, we use an air fryer to achieve crispness, you can also do this in an oven. I also used Date Lady’s Sweet Chili Sauce that is sweetened with dates instead of sugar, making it more healthy and containing more vitamins and nutritional properties!

If you are not a shrimp eater, you can make this recipe with chicken! Just cube your chicken into 1 inch cubes first and it will be essentially the same steps after that.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb shrimp
- salt
- garlic powder
- 1 egg
- 1 cup arrowroot powder, or cornstarch
- avocado oil spray or olive oil spray
- Date Lady’s Sweet Chili Sauce to coat
- 4 green onions, sliced for garnish
Preparation:
STEP 1.
Season your shrimp with salt and garlic powder all over. Pat dry with a paper towel and set aside.
STEP 2.
In a bowl, whisk an egg and 3 tbsp of water together to make the egg wash. In another bowl add the arrowroot powder and mix with some salt and garlic powder all over, around 2 tsps each. Coat the shrimp in the egg wash, remove the shrimp and let the egg wash drip off slightly and then coat in the arrowroot powder mixture, making sure the arrowroot sticks and it is well coated.
STEP 3.
If using an air fryer, coat the air fryer in a layer of oil or spray oil. Working in batches, add your shrimp, giving it enough space to where they are not touching, and air fry the shrimp on 400*F or until golden brown. Remove and place in a clean bowl and finish the other shrimp. If using an oven, preheat an oven to 400*F, place the shrimp on a roasting rack over a baking dish and roast for 12 minutes until golden brown.
STEP 4.
Once all the shrimp are done, coat them with the sweet chili sauce and enjoy! Top with green onions for garnish.
