4 ounces unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
oil, for deep-frying
24 fresh large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
2 eggs, beaten
8 fluid ounces milk
2 cups flour

  • Cover and keep warm over low heat.
  • ---To Make The Shrimp---.
  • Combine the egg and milk in a small bowl.
  • Place flour in a large gallon-size zip-lock bag.
  • Coat six of the shrimp with egg mixture, then toss them in the bag of flour and shake well to coat.
  • Leave them in there, and repeat the process, six shrimp at a time.
  • Make sure they are all well coated with flour.
  • Refrigerate for about 5 minutes while your deep fryer heats up to 375°F.
  • Deep-fry at 375°F for about 8-10 minutes until shrimp tails are dark brown.
  • Remove, drain, and toss gently with your prepared Buffalo sauce; you can do this by shaking gently in a large Tupperware container with a lid.

Tips:

  • To make the shrimp extra crispy, double-coat them in the breading mixture.
  • Use a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil to fry the shrimp. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Do not overcrowd the pot when frying the shrimp. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the shrimp will not cook properly.
  • Fry the shrimp in batches until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Drain the shrimp on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
