Coconut Shrimp

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Marinate the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine the coconut milk, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

2

Prepare Breading

Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with shredded coconut.

3

Bread the Shrimp

Remove shrimp from marinade. Dredge each shrimp first in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with shredded coconut.

4

Fry the Shrimp

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the coconut-coated shrimp in batches for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5

Serve

Serve the coconut shrimp hot with Thai chili sauce for dipping.
