Shrimp Basket Recipe

Shrimp Basket Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Shrimp

   In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, beat the egg. Dip each shrimp in the flour mixture, then in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

2. 2

   Prepare the Fries

   Peel and cut the potatoes into fries. Rinse them in cold water, then pat dry with a towel.

3. 3

   Fry the Shrimp and Fries

   In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the coated shrimp for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let drain on paper towels. Fry the potato fries in the same oil until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4. 4

   Serve

   Serve the shrimp and fries hot with dinner rolls on the side.
