All the ingredients bring their own flavors, so no need for fancy seasonings
If you don’t want to mess with skewers, you can still throw everything in the Air Fryer basket and let them cook all together

Ingredients You’ll Need

This shrimp kebab recipe uses simple ingredients. Here are the essential that you’ll need for the skewers:

Shrimp: We used fresh, peeled, and deveined shrimp. You can find them also frozen, however, you’ll need to defrost them in the fridge the night before
Red Bell Pepper: You can use any color of bell peppers, but we like the sweetness of red bell peppers
Red Onions: You can use any kind of onions that you have on hand, but we like using red onions because it adds color to the dish
Pineapple: It’s best to use fresh pineapple for this recipe because canned pineapple will be too mushy when cooked

Assemble the ingredients on the skewers, alternating each ingredient on the skewers.
Coat with olive oil or cooking spray and sprinkle on the seasonings.
