Instructions

  1. Cook jasmine rice according to package directions. Prepare edamame as directed and set both aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix cucumbers, carrots, onions, herbs, vinegar, soy sauce, hot honey, sesame oil, and salt. Toss and let marinate.
  3. Preheat air fryer to 390°F (200°C). Set up breading station: one bowl with eggs, another with panko, flour, and seasonings. Dip shrimp in egg, then coat with breading. Set aside.
  4. Arrange shrimp in air fryer basket in a single layer. Spray with avocado oil. Cook for 4–5 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and cooked through.
  5. While shrimp cook, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add hot honey, sriracha, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Stir until smooth and bubbling. Remove from heat.
  6. Toss air-fried shrimp in the hot honey sauce until coated.
  7. Assemble bowls: divide rice between 4 bowls. Add shrimp, edamame, cucumber salad, and crispy wonton strips. Top with lime wedges and serve.

Notes

  • Bake shrimp at 400°F if you don’t have an air fryer.
  • Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and tamari for a gluten-free version.
  • To keep shrimp crispy, cool on a wire rack after cooking.
  • Customize with your favorite veggies like avocado or radishes.
  • Shrimp, rice, and edamame can be reheated; keep salad and wontons separate until serving.
