I love coconut and always have a glass jar in my pantry filled with it to top smoothies, oatmeal, or desserts. Recently, I saw my jar and started thinking about other dishes I could make with my coconut shreds. That’s when I saw the frozen bag of shrimp and knew exactly what to do. Coconut Shrimp is a classic dish and easy to make.
When I am cooking and creating recipes I try to use things I already have in my kitchen to not only save money but to make things easier and more practical. The shrimp deep fried in the coconut shreds gives a texture to the dish that makes me coming back for more. It’s delicious with sriracha mayo on the side. I have a 3 ingredient recipe for sriracha mayo if you want to make yours homemade.
I hope you enjoy my coconut shrimp! If you try it and like it, tag me on social media so I can see your version.
Thank you,
Summer Sierra
