Shrimp and Breading

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.

  2. 2

    Coat the Shrimp

    Dip each shrimp in the egg, then coat with the cornmeal mixture. Make sure each shrimp is evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Shrimp

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