Ingredients

Shrimp:

  • 1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on)

Batter:

Coating:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Whisk flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Beat eggs in another bowl. Mix panko breadcrumbs and shredded coconut in a third bowl.
