Method

1

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a shallow bowl, combine flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

2

Place beaten eggs in a second shallow bowl. Place breadcrumbs in a third shallow bowl.

3

Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F, measured with an instant-read thermometer.

4

Working in batches, coat each shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip into egg, then roll in breadcrumbs to coat fully.

5

Carefully lower breaded shrimp into hot oil and fry for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and floating. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

6

Serve fried shrimp immediately with lemon wedges, dipping sauce, and optional vegetable side.
