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.
