Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams shrimp tails
- 60 grams coconut flour
- 50 grams parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 30 milliliters heavy cream
- 60 milliliters olive oil
- 2 lemon wedges
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp tails under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a shallow dish, combine coconut flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until well combined.
Dip each shrimp tail into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, and then dredge it through the coconut flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, place the shrimp tails in the skillet in a single layer without overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and drain them on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve the shrimp tails on a platter, garnished with chopped parsley and lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over just before eating.
