Coconut Shrimp Pizza Food

COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat about 2-inches of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or large Dutch oven over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, put the eggs in one shallow dish. Whisk the flour, cornstarch, cayenne, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper together in a medium bowl. Transfer half the flour mixture to a third bowl and stir in the coconut.
• Working in batches, dredge the shrimp in the flour mixture, shake off any excess, dip in the eggs, and then roll in the coconut mixture, pressing to coat thoroughly. Fry until golden, 2 to 3 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain the oil temperature. Transfer the shrimp to paper towels to drain. Serve with sweet chili or sweet and sour sauce on the side for dipping.

DAIRY-FREE COCONUT SHRIMP PIZZA

Steps:

• Place your pizza stone or steel (if using) on an oven rack in the middle of your oven. If you plan to cook your pizza on a baking sheet, just place a rack in the middle of the oven (you do not need to preheat the baking sheet). Preheat the oven to 500°F (or the highest temperature your oven will allow, if using a pizza stone/steel) and let it heat up for at least 30 minutes while you make the dough and/or prep the toppings.

COCONUT SHRIMP PIZZA

Steps:

• Equipment:.
• Baking sheet with parchment.
• Skillet.
• Wood Cutting board.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll pizza dough and place on prepared baking sheet, stretching to make into a rectangle. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat with garlic. Brush melted garlic butter on dough and bake for 8 minutes. Set aside.
• In a shallow dish, stir to combine panko, shredded coconut, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place eggs in a separate shallow bowl or dish and beat with a whisk. Coat shrimp in egg then coat in panko and coconut. Place on a plate or tray.
• Heat canola oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook shrimp until lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain cooked shrimp on a towel-lined plate.
• To prepare pizza, top crust with half of the shredded mozzarella, chilis, pineapple, red onion and coconut shrimp. Sprinkle over remaining cheese and bake until crust is golden and cheese is melted, about 6-10 minutes.
• Transfer to a cutting board and garnish with chopped scallions.

BAKED COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• For the shrimp: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the broiler. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet and spray the rack with oil.
• Pat the shrimp dry.
• Place the flour and salt in a bowl and whisk together. Place the eggs in another bowl, and the coconut in a third bowl.
• Working in batches, lightly coat the shrimp in the flour and gently tap to remove the excess; dip in the egg and then roll in the coconut to coat. Place the coconut shrimp on the prepared wire rack.
• When all the shrimp are on the rack, lightly spray them with oil. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and broil the shrimp on the center rack until crispy and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: Place all of the ingredients in a small bowl and stir until combined.
• Serve the coconut shrimp with the dipping sauce on the side.

COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• Make the dip: In a small bowl, combine marmalade, mustard, Sriracha (if using), lime juice and salt. Stir until fully incorporated. If it's too thick, add a touch more lime juice.
• Make the shrimp: Place the cornstarch, lime zest, salt and cayenne (if using) in a shallow bowl. Whisk the egg whites in another bowl until frothy. Toss the coconut and panko in another shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Working with one shrimp at a time, holding it by its tail, coat the shrimp (but not the tail) in the cornstarch mixture then shake off excess. Dip in the egg whites, then shake off excess. Dredge in coconut-panko mixture, pressing to coat. Set aside on a large plate. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Heat enough oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet in a thin layer. Heat over medium until oil shimmers. (A pinch of the coconut-panko mixture added to the oil should sizzle and brown easily. If the oil isn't hot enough, the shrimp will stick to the pan.) Working in batches if necessary, add shrimp in a single, even layer (do not crowd the pan), and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Adjust the heat as necessary if the shrimp is browning too quickly.
• Using tongs, grab the shrimp by the tail (so as not to disturb the crust) and flip over. Cook until golden brown underneath, about 2 minutes more. Remove the shrimp by the tail from the pan to a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with the rest of the shrimp, adding additional oil as needed.
• Serve immediately with dip.
