Golden Fried Shrimp Recipes

CRISPY FRIED SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, 1 tablespoon salt, Old Bay seasoning, and black pepper.
• Place the buttermilk in a separate shallow bowl.
• Pour the oil into a medium Dutch oven or cast iron skillet and warm over medium-high heat until it reaches 375 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, pat the shrimp dry and dredge them in the flour mixture first, then coat with buttermilk, and dredge in the flour mixture again. Shake the shrimp after each coating to get off any excess flour or batter.
• Working in batches, fry shrimp until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes). Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp to a paper towel-lined tray. Season with additional salt, to taste. You may need to increase the heat to keep the oil at a steady temperature between 350 degrees F and 375 degrees F as the shrimp fry.
• Keep the fried shrimp warm in a 200 degree F oven while you fry the remaining batches.

FRIED SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• Add flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper to a medium shallow dish and whisk to blend.***
• In a second medium shallow dish whisk eggs until well blended.
• Pour panko into a 3rd shallow dish (a pie plate works well here).
• Preheat oil in a large pot to 350 degrees while you coat shrimp. Note that shrimp should be lightly wet on the exterior, if not rinse with water and drain well otherwise the flour won't stick in the next step.
• Dredge shrimp in flour mixture on both sides. Transfer to egg mixture and coat on both sides. Then finish by coating in panko on both sides, while pressing into panko so it adheres well.
• Fry shrimp in batches (no more than 10 at a time) until cooked through, about 1 minute. Bring oil back to 350 degree temperature between batches.
• Use a large spider to remove shrimp from oil and transfer to a baking sheet lined with two layers of paper towels to drain. Repeat process with remaining shrimp.
• Garnish shrimp with parsley if desired, serve with lemon wedges and your favorite shrimp sauce (such as cocktail sauce, honey mustard, tartar sauce, sriracha dip, creamy herb etc).

• Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Fry the shrimp in batches until golden and crispy, approximately 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt and pepper. Serve with Cocktail Sauce.

Steps:

• Whisk egg yolks until smooth. Slowly drizzle the oil, a few drops at time, whisking continuously, until mixture resembles a thick custard. Slowly add rice vinegar, salt, garlic powder, and saffron, mixing until well combined. Cover your golden sauce and refrigerate until flavors meld, 8 hours to overnight.
• Place shrimp on a flat work surface. Slice each horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Pat dry with paper towels.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Arrange shrimp in a circle in the skillet, with tails touching. Spoon about 1 heaping teaspoon golden sauce over each shrimp. Add white wine; cover with a lid and steam until sauce becomes fluffy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove shrimp carefully with a slotted spatula onto serving plates.
