Shrimp and Coating

Honey Drizzle

Method

Preparation of Shrimp

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the peeled and deveined shrimp with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well and let marinate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In one shallow bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second shallow bowl, beat the eggs. In a third shallow bowl, place the almond flour.

Breading and Frying

  1. 3

    Bread the Shrimp

    Dredge each shrimp first in the all-purpose flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with almond flour. Press the almond flour onto the shrimp to ensure it sticks.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 5

    Fry the Shrimp

    Carefully add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the shrimp and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Honey Drizzle

  1. 6

    Prepare Honey Drizzle

    In a small saucepan, combine honey and water. Heat over low heat, stirring until the honey is thinner and fully combined with the water. Remove from heat.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Almond Shrimp

    Arrange the fried almond shrimp on a serving platter and drizzle with the honey sauce. Serve immediately.
