How to Make Panko Fried Shrimp!! - Crispy Breaded Shrimps Recipe

Learn how to make crispy deep fried shrimp! Breaded using panko bread crumbs, these classic fried shrimp are crunchy on the outside and sweet and delicate on the inside. Served with cocktail sauce, these are delicious morsels of the sea!

What you'll need:
approx. 1 pound 41-60 size frozen shrimp with the shells on
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp seasoned salt (or use Old Bay Seasoning)
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1 quart vegetable oil (for frying)

Place shrimp into a large bowl filled with cold water to thaw. Separate shrimps so they thaw evenly. Let sit about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl combine flour with seasoned salt. Mix to combine.
In another small bowl, whisk eggs with 1 Tbsp water.
In yet another bowl, add panko breadcrumbs and season with an additional 1/4 tsp seasoned salt.
When shrimp are thawed, peel leaving the tail attached. Place into a colander to drain well.
To bread, coat shrimp in flour, then egg, then panko breadcrumbs. Set onto a plate. Continue with remaining shrimp.
To fry, heat oil in a heavy pan over medium-high heat to 350*F. Working in batches, fry for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes or until golden brown and done on the inside. Do not overcook! When golden brown, remove to a draining rack and let drain. Serve with cocktail sauce. Makes 40-60 shrimps. Enjoy!

Seasoned salt recipe:
2 Tbsp salt
2 tsp white sugar
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper

I'm a 60+ year old native of Upper Galveston Bay who loves loves loves our abundant super fresh seafood, and I love to cook too. I stumbled upon this video, and it's almost exactly how I fry shrimp when I go Panko (sometimes I fry 'em with cornmeal). Great video; excellent instruction very nicely shot and edited - this big time shrimp snob approves! And YES, panko crumbs for sure, they're far superior to any other crumbs for this.

I saw this recipe a week ago...made it today and honestly it was sooo good - definitely will be making more from now onwards. ps. As I wanted more flavour and spice to my meal, when making my egg mix I decided to add red chili powder, a bit of milk, and salt and whisked away!

Thank you for the great recipe & the healthy caution to new fry cooks. I'm a firefighter & I've been to too many oil-related emergency calls.
