Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Shrimp

Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

2

Set Up Breading Station

In three separate bowls, place the flour in the first bowl, the beaten eggs in the second bowl, and the breadcrumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, and Old Bay seasoning in the third bowl.

3

Bread the Shrimp

Dredge each shrimp in the flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Ensure each shrimp is evenly coated.

4

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).

5

Fry the Shrimp

Carefully add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

6

Serve

Serve the fried shrimp hot with a side of cocktail sauce for dipping.
