By Yankee Magazine|Nov 03 2007|
Ingredients
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 pound uncooked large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 egg, beaten
oil for frying
lemon wedges
cocktail sauce
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine breadcrumbs and coconut. Dip shrimp into beaten
egg and then into breadcrumb/coconut mixture. Be sure to press the shrimp
firmly to make the coating adhere to shrimp. Chill shrimp for at least 15
minutes so coating sticks.
Heat oil in a large saucepan until hot. Add shrimp and cook until golden.
Remove with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels.
Serve with lemon wedges and a zesty cocktail sauce.
