Shrimp

Bourbon Honey Chipotle Sauce

Sweet Red Peppers

Method

Preparation of Shrimp

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Bread the Shrimp

    In another bowl, beat the eggs. Dip each shrimp into the egg mixture, then coat with the cornmeal mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Place the breaded shrimp on a plate.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  2. 4

    Fry the Shrimp

    Carefully add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Bourbon Honey Chipotle Sauce

  1. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, bourbon, minced chipotle peppers, minced garlic, soy sauce, and lime juice. Stir well and let simmer for about 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.

Preparation of Sweet Red Peppers

  1. 6

    Prep the Peppers

    While the sauce is simmering, wash, core, and slice the sweet red bell peppers into strips.
