Mango Sauce Preparation

Shrimp Preparation
  1. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. In a bowl, mix garlic powder, lime zest, salt, and pepper. Toss shrimp to ensure even coating.
Breading Station Setup
  1. Create three shallow containers: one for beaten eggs, one for Panko breadcrumbs, and one for shredded coconut.
Breading the Shrimp
  1. Dip each shrimp in beaten eggs, then coat thoroughly in Panko breadcrumbs. Double dip for a crispy finish.
Frying the Shrimp
  1. Heat oil in a skillet to 350°F-375°F. Fry shrimp in batches for about 2 minutes until golden brown, flipping once.
Serving
