Description

I have been thinking about coconut shrimp lately. I love coconut. I love shrimp. I looove anything deep fried. They are all perfectly married in this recipe. These shrimp have a light and crunchy coating that is the perfect ratio of coconut and breadcrumbs to tender shrimp. And then for the sauce I wanted something sweet and spicy, and this mango chili sauce was perfect!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE SHRIMP:
  • 1 pound Shrimp, Peeled With Tail On
  • ½ cups Flour
  • 2 whole Eggs, Beaten With A Pinch Of Salt
  • 1 cup Coconut, Shredded And Sweetened
  • ½ cups Panko Bread Crumbs
  • 1 quart Vegetable Oil
  • _____
  • FOR THE MANGO-CHILI SAUCE:
  • 1 cup Fresh Ripe Mango, Pitted And Chopped
  • 1 whole Fresno Chili, Stem Cut Off And Seeded
  • 2 Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • Salt To Taste

Preparation

Start to heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan using a clip on thermometer to monitor the temperature.

Rinse and drain the shrimp. Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail on.

Line up all of the coating toppings, the coconut mixture, the flour and the eggs. First, a bowl of flour; then a bowl with the eggs; then a bowl with the coconut and panko.

Dredge the shrimp in the flour. Dip in the eggs and let the excess drip off. Dredge the shrimp in the coconut/crumb mixture.

Fry coated shrimp in the oil (which should be 350 degrees F) for just about a minute, or until the coconut mixture is golden brown on both sides.

Drain briefly on a napkin and serve hot with the Mango-chili sauce.

For the sauce: Combine everything in a blender and puree until smooth.
