Shrimp and Sauce

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Breading the Shrimp

    Dip each shrimp first into the flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs. Ensure each shrimp is evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Frying the Shrimp

    In a deep skillet or fryer, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded shrimp in batches until golden brown and crispy, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Buffalo Sauce

    In a mixing bowl, combine the buffalo sauce and melted butter. Stir until well combined.

  5. 5

    Toss the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, toss the crispy shrimp with the buffalo sauce until evenly coated.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the buffalo blue shrimp hot with blue cheese dressing and celery sticks on the side.
