Paula Deen's Beer Battered Shrimp image

I found this recipe on Food Network's website and couldn't believe it wasn't on Zaar! This is a super simple fried shrimp recipe from Paula Deen. I tried this on my shrimp the other night and it was delicious. I also fried some chicken tenders in the batter and they were delicious as well. Make sure you let the beer/flour mixture sit for a few hours before using it.

BEER BATTERED SHRIMP

Beer Battered Shrimp image

I found this recipe in a book from 1983 from the Clinton House Inn in New York! You can use this batter for fish filets also, and it is to be served with Orange Horseradish Sauce...

Provided by TAMMY WADE

Categories Seafood

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

20 large shrimp
3 c flour
2 c beer
2 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 c cornstarch
2 Tbsp paprika
salt and pepper to taste
orange horseradish sauce:
1 c orange marmalade
1/4 c chutney
1/4 c honey
1 tsp ginger
horseradish to taste

Steps:

1. Remove shells from shrimp, leaving tails on. Remove the vein from the back of shrimp with paring knife.
2. Place beer in mixing bowl. Add baking powder, cornstarch, salt, pepper, and paprika. Whip until disolved.
3. Add 2 cups flour while whipping until the consistency of pancake flour.
4. Prheat deep fryer to 350* Dust shrimp in flour and then dip into batter. Drop in deep fryer for about 4 minutes. Serve with Horseradish sauce.
5. Orange Horseradish Sauce: Mix all the ingredients except horseradish together, then add horseradish to taste. Chill well... Enjoy!!

Tips:

Choose the right shrimp. Medium or large shrimp work best for beer batter.
Make sure the shrimp is cold. This will help the batter adhere better.
Use a light beer. A light beer will give the batter a crispy texture.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the batter tough.
Let the batter rest for a few minutes before using. This will allow the flour to fully absorb the liquid.
Fry the shrimp in hot oil. The oil should be at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause the shrimp to steam instead of fry.
Fry the shrimp until it is golden brown and cooked through. This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve the shrimp hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Beer-battered shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your shrimp is perfectly cooked and crispy. So next time you're looking for a tasty and impressive dish, give beer-battered shrimp a try.
