Method
Shrimp Marinade

Marinate the Shrimp
In a large bowl, combine the lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Batter Preparation

Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and add it to the dry ingredients along with the cold water. Mix until smooth and consistent.

Fry the Shrimp
Remove the marinated shrimp from the refrigerator. Dip each shrimp into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered shrimp into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp and drain on paper towels.
