Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 0.5 cup arrowroot powder
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons hot sauce (Paleo-friendly)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon raw honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and coconut milk until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the arrowroot powder, coconut flour, salt, and pepper.
Dip each shrimp into the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated. Shake off any excess.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the shrimp in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off excess oil.
In a small saucepan, combine the hot sauce, lime juice, honey, and minced garlic. Stir over medium heat until the sauce begins to simmer.
Remove the sauce from the heat and pour it over the fried shrimp, tossing gently to coat the shrimp evenly.
Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter and garnish with sliced green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Dynamite Shrimp!
