Answer 6

There is a box of seafood breading that is sold at the market. You could use that or for a no breading approach try spicing it up by sauteing the shrimp in a pan w/ some garlic & olive oil, then add a can of diced tomatoes, some a italian seasoning and serve over pasta.

Answer 7

I dredge cleaned shrimp in flour, dip in egg, then roll in a mixture of coconut and bread crumps. I fry in deep enough oil on medium high for a few minutes depending on size, then serve with a mixture of orange marmalade and mustard for dipping. You can add pepper or salt if you like but I find this usually has enough flavor by itself.

Answer 8

Flour (or seasoned flour), egg then breadcrumbs. To make it more fluffy like, add some milk or cream to the egg before you put the shrimp in. Deep fry.

Or you can make a tempura batter with flour and cold water (it has to be cold so the flour doesnt ferment) or you could use ice. Fry at a high tempreture. (about 120 degrees)
