Shrimp Preparation

1

Prepare the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Dredge the shrimp in the flour mixture, dip in the beaten eggs, and then coat again with the flour mixture.

2

Fry the Shrimp

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp in batches and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
