Crispy Fried Shrimp Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Shrimp

   In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Dip each shrimp in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture to coat well.

2. 2

   Heat the Oil

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

3. 3

   Fry the Shrimp

   Carefully add the coated shrimp to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the shrimp and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

4. 4

   Cook the Fries

   While the shrimp are frying, cook the frozen or homemade French fries according to package instructions or your preferred method.

5. 5

   Prepare Coleslaw

   In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix with the coleslaw dressing and toss well to combine.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the crispy fried shrimp alongside the fries and coleslaw for a delicious meal.
