Shrimp Lollipops Recipe

Shrimp Lollipops

1. 1

   Prepare the Shrimp

   Start by rinsing the shrimp under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels.

2. 2

   Skewer the Shrimp

   Take each shrimp and insert a skewer through the tail to the head, creating a lollipop shape. Repeat with all shrimp.

3. 3

   Set Up the Breading Station

   In three separate bowls, place flour in one, beat the egg in another, and mix breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper in the third.

4. 4

   Bread the Shrimp

   Dip each shrimp lollipop first into the flour, then into the beaten egg, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure they are well-coated.

5. 5

   Heat the Oil

   In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

6. 6

   Fry the Shrimp

   Carefully place the breaded shrimp lollipops into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

7. 7

   Drain and Serve

   Once cooked, remove the shrimp lollipops and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh parsley.
