Spicy Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Basil Salsa and Lime Jasmine Rice image

I marinate the shrimp in a sweet and spicy coconut milk marinade then I cook them in a dry pan. The salsa finishes it off with more sweetness and heat. Basil keeps the tongue awake through it all.

Steps:

  • Heat a nonstick skillet over high heat. Use tongs or a fork to remove the shrimp from the marinade and place in an even layer in the pan, reserving the marinade.
  • Cook the shrimp until well browned on each side, turning once, about 3 to 4 minutes total. Transfer cooked shrimp to a serving plate.
  • Add reserved marinade to pan, bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Provided by Joanna Cismaru

Categories     Appetizer     Lunch

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound jumbo shrimp (tails on)
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs
2 cups sweetened coconut (shredded)
salt and pepper to taste
vegetable oil for frying
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 mango (cubed, about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup)
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon sriracha
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup cilantro

Steps:

  • Make the dipping sauce first by adding all the ingredients to a blender and blend for 1 minute or 2 until the sauce is smooth. Refrigerate the sauce until shrimp is ready for serving.
  • Fill a Dutch oven or a deep frying pan with vegetable oil, about 1 1/2 inches deep and heat.
  • While the oil is hot, prepare 3 shallow plates. Add the breadcrumbs to one plate, beat the eggs with salt and pepper in another plate and place the shredded coconut in the 3rd plate.
  • Dredge the shrimp through the breadcrumbs first, then dip them in the egg mixture, then finally dredge them through the coconut, making sure enough coconut sticks to them. Fry a few at a time about 2 minutes, depends on how hot your oil is, so they don't stick to one another, I did about 4 or 5 at a time, depending on the size of your shrimp. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
  • Serve the shrimp along with the spicy mango sauce together.

BAKED COCONUT SHRIMP WITH SPICY MANGO SAUCE



Baked Coconut Shrimp With Spicy Mango Sauce image

In baking the shrimp instead of frying you save on loads of calories without sacrificing taste. Cornstarch helps the coating to adhere much better to the shrimp instead of flour. This recipe works best with extra-large shrimp, 15-20 to the pound. Do not butterfly the shrimp or they will come out tough.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tsp canola oil
1/2 cup chopped red onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and minced
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1 mango, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 lb large shrimp, peeled, tails on
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp garlic powder

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tsp oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion, garlic, ginger, 1/4 tsp salt, allspice, cumin and cinnamon about 3 minutes. Add mango, vinegar, lime juice and sugar and gently boil, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick; refrigerate in a bowl. Toss shrimp with red pepper, garlic powder and remaining 1/2 tsp salt. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes on each side. Let cool; serve with sauce.

Tips:

  • For the crispiest coconut shrimp, use fresh, unsweetened coconut flakes. If you don't have fresh coconut flakes, you can use shredded coconut flakes, but they won't be as crispy.
  • To make sure the shrimp is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also tell if the shrimp is cooked through by looking for the shrimp to turn pink and opaque.
  • The spicy mango sauce is the perfect complement to the sweet coconut shrimp. Be sure to adjust the amount of chili pepper you use to taste.
  • This dish can be served as an appetizer or a main course. If you're serving it as a main course, be sure to serve it with a side of rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Knockout Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet coconut shrimp is perfectly complemented by the spicy mango sauce, and the dish can be served as an appetizer or a main course. With its crispy coconut coating, tender shrimp, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
