Shrimp and Coating
Method
Cooking the Shrimp
Prepare the Shrimp
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or heat oil in a deep fryer. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Season with salt and black pepper.
Coat the Shrimp
Set up a dredging station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of panko breadcrumbs and shredded coconut. Dip each shrimp first in flour, then in the egg, and finally coat with the panko-coconut mixture.
Cook the Shrimp
If using an oven, place the coated shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. If frying, carefully place the shrimp in the hot oil and fry until golden and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
