In the same pan add 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add the chopped shrimp marinated with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp turmeric powder.
Mix well and fry on low heat for 3 to 4 minutes.
Take the shrimp out when done. Took me 3 minutes on medium flame.
Now take a muffin tray as I have an air fryer oven. Note: If you have a round basket air fryer then you can use muffin cups or silicon cups for air frying. Brush with a good amount of olive oil in the tray.
Now add shredded cheddar cheese. Then add cooked chicken and fried shrimp.
Now add jalapeno pickles and fresh slices, red pepper pickle slices, low-carb tortilla chips, and chopped onion.
Now add shredded cheese, some more grated cheddar cheese, and red and yellow bell pepper.

Once done take them out with the help of a spoon and serve them hot. Be careful while taking them out they are quite hot.
Serve hot with any choice of your dip.
