Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine the buttermilk and shrimp. Let it marinate for 30 minutes.
2. Set Up Breading Station
In one bowl, place the flour. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs. In a third bowl, mix cornmeal with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Bread the Shrimp
Remove shrimp from the buttermilk, shaking off excess. Dredge in flour, dip in eggs, and coat with the cornmeal mixture.
4. Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry the Shrimp
Carefully add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Drain and Serve
Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauce.
