Better than restaurants this crispy, golden fried Coconut Shrimp recipe is so good. Crispy on the outside and juicy delicious shrimp inside, these coconut shrimp are a perfect crowd pleaser, along with sweet chili coconut shrimp sauce!

Ingredients

Shrimp

• 1 lb/ 25 Approx. Large Shrimp, raw, fresh, peeled, deveined,tail-on
• 1/4 tsp Salt

For Egg Mixture:

• 2 Eggs + 1/4tsp Salt

For Flour Mix:

• 1/2 Cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1/2tsp Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1/4tsp Black Pepper Powder
• 1/2tsp Paprika

For Garnish:

• Cilantro, chopped
• Red Chili Flakes

For Coconut Shrimp Dipping Sauce:

• 1/4 Cup Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
• 1/4 Cup Pineapple Preserves/Jam

Instructions

1. Arrange 3 bowls.
2. In the first bowl whisk eggs with salt, and keep this aside.
3. In the second bowl, dry mix flour, salt, pepper powder, garlic powder, and paprika.
4. In the third bowl, add panko and coconut flakes and mix well.
5. Apply salt to shrimp and dip each shrimp in the flour mix. Shake off extra flour.
6. Next, dip the shrimp in an egg mixture, and finally dredge each shrimp in panko and coconut flakes mix, lightly pressing to coat the shrimp with the mix.
7. Arrange the shrimp on a tray ready to either bake/ deep-fry or skillet fry them.
8. I have skillet fried shrimp in this recipe but deep fry or baking works equally well.
9. Add oil to the pan and let it get hot. Once the oil is hot arrange the shrimp on the skillet.
10. Let the shrimp cook on one side then turn the shrimp on another side to ensure even cooking. Once all the shrimp are cooked serve with coconut shrimp dipping sauce.
11. Garnish with chopped cilantro and red chili flakes
