Coconut Shrimp

8 ingredients
9 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 pound 31-40 Count Size Shrimp, Deveined And Cleaned
  • 1- 1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Seasoned Salt, Divided
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1/2 cups Milk
  • 2 cups Panko Bread Crumbs (I Wouldn't Substitute These For Regular, They Make All The Difference In The World)
  • 1 cup Shredded Coconut (I Used Unsweetened, And It Was A Finer Grain, Which I Liked Because It Matched The Texture Of The Bread Crumbs)
  • 6 cups Oil For Frying, Or Shortening

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat oil in a deep pan or deep fryer.
  2. 2
    You will need 3 separate bowls for dipping (I used pie plates) one for flour, one for egg mixture, and one for panko mixture.
  3. 3
    In the first pan put flour and 1 teaspoon of seasoned salt, mix well.
  4. 4
    In the next pan beat eggs with milk and 1/2 teaspoon of seasoned salt.
  5. 5
    In the third pan put panko, coconut and remaining 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt.
  6. 6
    First put cleaned shrimp into flour mixture, then dip in egg mixture.
  7. 7
    Finally move to panko mixture, covering shrimp completely with panko/coconut mixture.
  8. 8
    Carefully drop shrimp into hot oil and cook for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  9. 9
    I served with an orange marmalade dipping sauce that I made, but you can use whatever you like.
