Description
A vibrant dish of shrimp marinated in a sweet and spicy sauce, coated in breadcrumbs, and fried to perfection, offering a delightful crunch and burst of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons sriracha
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix sriracha, soy sauce, and honey to create the marinade.
- Add the shrimp to the bowl, ensuring each piece is well-coated, and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Set up a breading station: place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
- Dredge each shrimp in flour, dip it in egg, and coat with breadcrumbs.
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the shrimp in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Place the fried shrimp on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Serve hot as an appetizer, in lettuce wraps, or over rice.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding minced garlic or ginger to the marinade, or try using panko breadcrumbs for an extra crunch.
