Preparation of Shrimp
1. Prepare the Shrimp
Start by rinsing the shrimp under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels. Ensure that they are completely dry to help the breading stick.
Breading Process
2. Set Up Breading Station
In a shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour. In another dish, beat the eggs. In a third dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
3. Dredge in Flour and Egg
Dredge each shrimp in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
4. Coat with Breadcrumbs
Finally, coat the shrimp in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.
Frying
5. Heat Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Use enough oil so that the shrimp can float while frying.
6. Fry the Shrimp
Once the oil is hot (about 350°F or 175°C), carefully place the breaded shrimp in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
7. Cook Until Golden
Fry the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
8. Drain Excess Oil
Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serving
9. Serve and Enjoy
Serve the breaded shrimp hot with lemon wedges and cocktail sauce on the side.
