Keto Fried Shrimp Recipes

KETO LOW-CARB PARMESAN BREADED PAN FRIED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Get the recipe for the Keto Sugar-Free Cocktail Sauce here.
• Combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, seafood seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl large enough to dredge the shrimp.
• Place the beaten eggs in another bowl.
• Dredge the shrimp in the eggs and then the almond flour mixture. Keep a moist towel nearby to wipe your hands as needed. If your hands are really sticky it will be difficult to keep the breading on the remaining shrimp.
• Heat a skillet on medium-high heat. When hot, add the olive oil and butter. Allow the butter to melt and add the shrimp.
• Once you have added the shrimp, try not to move them around much until a crust forms on the bottom of the shrimp. If you move them, you may lose some of the breading.
• Once a crust forms on the bottom of the shrimp and the breading is golden brown, flip the shrimp. This should take about 3-4 minutes. It could be less depending on the size of your shrimp. Monitor the shrimp closely.
• Fry the other side of the shrimp for a couple of minutes.
• Remove the shrimp from the pan. Cool before serving.

KETO FRIED COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper.
• Stir together coconut flour, garlic powder, and onion powder in a shallow dish. Thoroughly whisk eggs and water in a second shallow dish. Mix together macadamia nuts and coconut in a third shallow dish.
• Dip each shrimp in coconut flour mixture, lightly coating all sides. Dip in egg mixture, then dip in macadamia-coconut mixture. Arrange coated shrimp on the prepared baking sheet.
• Heat 2 tablespoons ghee in a large skillet over medium heat until melted; add 1/2 of the shrimp. Cook, turning often, until shrimp are golden brown and opaque, 3 to 4 minutes total.
• Transfer shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining shrimp, adding additional ghee as needed.
