A delicious combination of breaded then deep fried shrimp & monetary jack cheese.

In a bowl, season the shrimp with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.

Prepare the Shrimp

Take a shrimp and place a piece of Monterey Jack cheese inside its curve. Press the shrimp around the cheese to enclose it completely. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.

Stuff the Shrimp

Prepare three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

Set Up Breading Station

Dip each stuffed shrimp in flour, then in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure they are well-coated.

Bread the Shrimp

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

Heat Oil

Carefully place the breaded shrimp in the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Fry the Shrimp

Serve hot as an appetizer with your favorite dipping sauce.
