An easy breaded shrimp recipe. A wonderful appetizer for a family dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
- 4 cups shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 cups dry bread crumbs
Directions
Step 1
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Working one at a time, dip shrimp into beaten egg, allowing any excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Press into bread crumbs to coat both sides. Place the breaded shrimp, unstacked, onto a plate. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
Step 3
Lower breaded shrimp carefully into preheated oil in batches. Fry until crispy and golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining breaded shrimp.
