Based on Joe's Crab Shack Coconut Shrimp

This is a tasty treat. This is one of our favorite ways in frying shrimp. Don't forget the sauce.

Serves 4

1 lb Medium - Large Fresh Shrimp (cleaned, shelled, and butterflied)

2 Eggs

1/4 C. Water

2/3 C. Corn Starch

7 oz. Package of Premium Flaked Coconut (small flake if possible)

1 Tbsp. Sugar

1 tsp. Salt

1/2 C. Flour

Mix eggs and water. Set aside. Place 1/3 cup of corn starch in bowl for dusting of shrimp. Mix in separate bowl 1/3 cup (the remainder) of corn starch, coconut, sugar, salt, and flour, blend well.

Heat oil for deep frying. Roll shrimp in corn starch, then in egg wash, then finally roll in coconut mixture. Place shrimp in hot oil and deep fry until done. Shrimp will float to the top when cooked.

Take care not to overcook shrimp.

Serve with sauce (below).

Note: We have found the results to be slightly better when you process the coconut in a blender for a few seconds. It will grate up the coconut just a bit more.

Pineapple Dipping Sauce

1 (8 oz.) Can Crushed Pineapple Natural Juice (do not drain, add juice)

1/2 C. Sugar

1/4 C. Red Plum Preserves

1/2 C. Sweet and Sour Sauce ( the yellow type not the red sauce, we used Kraft Sweet and Sour Sauce)

Place all in a sauce pan and simmer on medium low to low heat for 20 - 25 minutes stirring frequently until mixture thickens slightly.

We find this sauce is great with Coconut Shrimp and it goes well with Chicken Nuggets.

YUM, shrimp red curry.

I just made some. It's a really yummy and easy Thai dish. Just get Thai kitchen red curry paste from a grocery store, 1 can of light coconut milk, half a green, orange and red bell pepper.

Cut each half of bell pepper into thin strips. Put three spoons of the curry paste into a wok or a skillet and let it heat up for a minute. Then put the coconut milk and peppers in with it. Bring it to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. You can add shrimp right away or TOFU! YUM! Serve with steamed rice.

I personally like plain old shrimp alfredo. Not exciting, but delicious!

* 1 cup grated fresh parmesan

* 1 cup milk or heavy cream

* 1 tbsp butter

* 1 tsp cornstarch

* 1 packet fresh fettucini noodles

* 1 cup cooked shrimp or shrimp and cooked veggies of your choice

Heat the milk and butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix the cornstarch with water; when the milk simmers, add the cornstarch and whisk for 1 full minute. Remove from heat; add the grated parmesan and whisk for another minute (removing from heat prevents a grainy sauce).

Cook your noodles and drain. Mix it with the sauce and your veg/shrimp. Eat.

Cooked Shrimp + Cocktail sauce = Delicious

I buy this seafood mix that I put the shrimp in and shake it up, its like flour and then I put it in the deep fryer and it turns out so crispy and good =)

grill grill grill!

any grilled shrimp is AWESOME.

undercook them on the grill though, because they will continue to cook off the grill and then you'll have over-cooked shrimp (yuck) if you dont pull them off early enough

keep it simple:

garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, maybe lemon or lime juice

and baste while their grilling (maybe marinate before for intense flavor)

or this is my favorite,
