sweet and crunchy coconut shrimp with a heavenly pina colada sauce. So easy and delicious, why wouldn't you make it? Make a big batch of pina coladas before hand and half the work is done! I formulated this when I wasn't satisified with some of the baked coconut recipes I found and I wasn't about to fry anything. I hope you like it as much and my family does. Ingredients:
1 lb large raw shrimp |
1/3 cup cornstarch |
2 egg whites, lightly beaten |
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut |
1 cup panko breadcrumbs |
1 teaspoon onion powder |
salt and pepper |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
nonstick cooking spray |
1/2 cup yogurt, vanilla or 1/2 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup frozen pina colada mix |
Directions:
1. pre-heat oven 500 degrees.
2. make a batch of pina coladas, pour yourself some and turn on jimmy buffet.
3. combine the yogurt/sourcream and pina colada and chill for serving.
4. put coconut flakes and panko in a large storage bag.
5. dredge shrimp in cornstarch ( shake off excess before next step).
6. dip shrimp in egg whites.
7. toss in the coconut/panko bag ( give a little shake with each one so it gets coated before you throw the next one in)
8. I usually do 1/2 batch first and remove them from coconut/panko bag and then do the rest).
9. spray baking sheet liberally with non- stick spray.
10. place shrimp on sheet and spray again,liberally.
11. bake each side for 7-10 minutes.
12. serve with pina colada sauce - and another drink!
