Coconut Shrimp Recipe

Wednesday, March 21st, 2012

Coconut shrimp recipe

Shrimp may be among the world’s leanest sources of protein, but when entombed in a deep-fried coconut cocoon, all bets are off. We free the crustaceans from the fry job, but not from the crunchy coconut coating that makes this dish a mainstay on so many American restaurant menus. Naturally, this works great as an appetizer, but with sides of cumin-spiked black beans and roasted asparagus, these crunchy crustaceans also make for a pretty sound meal.

You’ll Need:

  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 12 oz large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • Sweet Asian chili sauce for dipping

How to Make It:
*Preheat the oven to 450F. Combine the panko, coconut, salt, and pepper on a plate. Place the flour on a separate plate and the egg in a shallow bowl. Working with a few at a time, coat the shrimp with flour, then egg, then finally with the bread crumb mixture, rolling the shrimp around so they are fully covered.

*Place the breaded shrimp on a nonstick baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, until the shrimp are firm and cooked through and the coating is nicely browned and crispy. Serve with chili sauce for dipping.

Sesame-Orange Shrimp

Monday, February 27th, 2012

Sesame-Orange Shrimp Recipe

These shrimp are super-easy to make—just coat them in a simple batter, cook them in a little oil and toss with a tangy sesame-orange sauce.

Enjoy!

4 servings
Active Time:
Total Time:

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons sesame seeds (white, black or a mix)
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 pound peeled and deveined raw shrimp (21-25 per pound)
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
  • 3/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry (see Note)
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced

Preparation

  1. Whisk sesame seeds, egg whites, cornstarch, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add half the shrimp and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the rest of the shrimp.
  3. Add orange juice, sherry, soy sauce and sugar to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and reduced by half, 4 to 6 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and stir to coat with the sauce. Serve immediately, with scallion sprinkled on top.

Tips & Notes

  • Note: Sherry is a type of fortified wine originally from southern Spain. Don’t use the “cooking sherry” sold in many supermarkets—it can be surprisingly high in sodium. Instead, get dry sherry that’s sold with other fortified wines at your wine or liquor store.
