Crispy Breaded Shrimp Food

CRISPY BREADED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Rinse shrimp under cold running water and pat dry.
• On a shallow plate, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Stir until evenly dispersed.
• In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, and hot sauce. Whisk until well blended and frothy.
• In a deep, wide skillet over medium heat, heat about 3 inches deep of oil.
• Working in batches, lightly dredge shrimps in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
• Dip in the egg mixture and then dredge again in flour mixture, patting down flour onto shrimp.
• Gently add into hot oil one by one (to prevent clumping) and deep-fry, turning as needed, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until golden and crisp.
• With a slotted spoon, remove from pan and drain on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Season with chili powder and drizzle with lime juice, if desired. Serve immediately.

OVEN BAKED CRISPY BREADED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 190 C or 375 F. Line a baking tray with foil and lightly brush a little olive oil (to stop from sticking later)
• Remove the shell from the shrimp. I like to leave a little bit of shell on at the tail end so they look nice and easier to handle when you eat them. Then devein by removing the black part along the centre back of each shrimp. Wash thoroughly and pat dry with kitchen paper. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on the shrimp.
• In a bowl, beat the egg. In a separate bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
• Dip the shrimp in the egg, and then the breadcrumbs. Push the breadcrumbs gently on each shrimp so it sticks. Then repeat, by dipping again in the egg and then the breadcrumbs. This is called double coating. When done, arrange the shrimp on the baking tray, and drizzle a little olive oil over the shrimp.
• Place in the oven and bake for 8 - 10 minutes or until you can see they have turned pink. (see the tails of the shrimp on my photos). If you cook them for too long, they can turn out a little chewy and rubbery, so keep an eye on the time and don't forget them!
• Serve hot with your favourite dips.

• Transfer the shrimp and any excess crumbs to a baking sheet. Bake until the shrimp are cooked through and the crumbs are crispy, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the beans, ¼ cup water, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

CRISPY SHRIMP BURGER

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, bell pepper, salt, and cayenne. Cook, stirring, until soft for about 6 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl and let cool slightly. Add the garlic, green onions, 2 of the eggs, and 1 cup of the bread crumbs. Stir to mix well. Divide into 8 equal portions and form into patties. Put the flour in a shallow bowl and season with 1 teaspoon of the Creole seasoning. Put the remaining 1 cup bread crumbs in another shallow bowl and season with the remaining 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning. Put the beaten egg in yet another shallow bowl, add the water, and beat lightly. Heat the vegetable oil in 2 large skillets over medium heat. Dredge each patty first in the flour, then in the egg mixture, then in the bread crumbs, turning to coat completely and shaking off any excess. Cook 4 patties at a time in each skillet, until lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. To serve, spread both sides of each toasted bun with some of the tartar sauce, place a patty on the bottom half of the bun, dress with lettuce and tomatoes, and top with the other bun half.
