These air fryer fish tacos are unique. Unlike most fish taco recipes, the slaw in this recipe is air-fried instead of raw, creating a caramelized version that leaves the fish to be the crispy star of the show.

This blackened shrimp salad bowl is big and bold in flavor and makes for a low-calorie meal packed with shrimp, brown rice, corn, crisp bell pepper, black beans, and avocado.
