COCONUT MANGO SALAD WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a medium skillet on medium and add oil. When you see a wisp of white smoke, add the shrimp and lightly saute them for about 1 minute, then reduce the heat to low. Add the shallots, garlic and Thai chilies and cook them for an additional minute, until the shrimp are just cooked through.
• Turn off the heat. Stir in the lime juice, fish sauce and sugar. Stir it until the sugar is dissolved. Transfer the shrimp and dressing to a serving plate. Allow to cool for a few minutes. When ready to serve, arrange the mango, coconut and red onion in the serving bowl. Toss to combine, and garnish with scallions and cashews.

COCONUT SHRIMP WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• For the coconut shrimp: Peel, devein and butterfly the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Rinse and pat dry.
• Line a sheet pan with paper towels and arrange the shrimp on top. Sprinkle with the cocoa powder, curry powder and lemon pepper. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the seasoning to be absorbed.
• Mix together the beer and the self-rising flour in a bowl to make a batter.
• Add the all-purpose flour to another bowl, and the coconut to a third. Arrange the bowls in a row so that the flour bowl is first, batter bowl second and coconut bowl third.
• Line a sheet pan with wax paper. Dip each shrimp into the flour, followed by the batter and finally the coconut, pressing down lightly so that the coconut adheres to the shrimp. Transfer the dressed shrimp to the lined sheet pan. Refrigerate at least 10 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Once ready, line a plate with paper towels and set aside. Add 1 tablespoon oil to a 12-inch skillet. Heat the oil until it is shimmering and hot enough to pan-fry the shrimp.
• Add 6 to 7 of the battered shrimp and cook until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to the lined plate to absorb excess oil.
• Continue until all the shrimp are cooked, adding more oil as needed.
• For the tropical rice: Stir the Pineapple Mango Salsa, coconut and lemon zest into the rice and serve immediately with the shrimp.
• Combine the mango, pineapple, tomato, onion, lemon juice, oil, vinegar, green pepper, parsley, jalapeño, garlic, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Taste for salt and pepper and add more if needed.
• Chill the salsa in a covered container. Will keep in the refrigerator for 4 days.

COCONUT SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• For the coconut shrimp: Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the cornstarch, flour, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Beat the eggs and 1/2 cup water in a second bowl. In a third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and coconut flakes.
• Bread the shrimp by dipping them first in the flour mixture and shaking off any excess, then in the egg wash and finally in the coconut breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure each shrimp has an even coating. Fry the shrimp in the oil in small batches until golden and crispy, approximately 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt.
• For the dressing: Mix the ranch, cilantro, hot sauce and lime zest and juice in a small bowl.
• For the salad: Arrange the greens, mango, cashews, radishes and cucumber on a platter. Top with the shrimp and serve with the dressing on the side.
