Shrimp Preparation

Method

Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine the raw shrimp with lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the shrimp are evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.

Breading Mixture

  1. 2

    Prepare the Breading Stations

    Set up three shallow dishes. In the first dish, add the all-purpose flour. In the second dish, place the beaten eggs. In the third dish, combine the breadcrumbs, paprika, cayenne pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  2. 4

    Bread the Shrimp

    Remove the marinated shrimp from the refrigerator. Dredge each shrimp in the flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip into the beaten eggs, followed by coating in the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each shrimp is fully coated.

  3. 5

    Fry the Shrimp

    Carefully place the breaded shrimp into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Shrimp

    Arrange the fried shrimp on a serving platter. Garnish with lemon wedges and chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
