Set up dredging stations
Arrange three shallow bowls: one with seasoned flour (1 cup flour, 0.5 tsp salt, 0.25 tsp pepper), one with beaten eggs (2 eggs) whisked with 2 tbsp milk, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with 0.25 cup grated Parmesan, 1 tsp paprika, 0.5 tsp garlic powder, 0.5 tsp onion powder.

Prepare the shrimp
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. If using large shrimp, leave tails on for presentation.
- 3
Dredge in flour
Lightly coat each shrimp in the flour, tapping off excess to create a light, even coating.
- 4
Dip in egg wash
Dip the flour-dredged shrimp into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
- 5
Coat with breadcrumbs
Roll the egg-coated shrimp in the breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even crust.

Heat oil
In a deep fryer or heavy, high-sided skillet, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
