Keto Coconut Shrimp image

My coconut shrimp is a great choice for a keto snack. I like the coarse, long shredded coconut. The smaller the shrimp, the faster they will cook. Serve with spicy aioli sauce.

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
¼ cup coconut flour
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
2 eggs, or more as needed
1 cup macadamia nuts
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
2 tablespoons ghee, or more to taste
1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Line a second cookie sheet with several layers of paper towels.
  • Mix coconut flour, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Whisk eggs thoroughly in a second bowl.
  • Grind macadamia nuts in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Avoid overmixing or mixture will start to clump. Empty ground nuts into a third bowl; mix in coconut until blended.
  • Place each shrimp in the coconut flour mixture, lightly coating on all sides. Then dip in the egg, and finally in the macadamia-coconut mixture. Place on the parchment-lined cookie sheet; repeat with remaining shrimp.
  • Heat ghee in a large skillet over medium heat until melted; add shrimp. Cook, turning often, adding more ghee as needed, until golden brown and evenly cooked, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Drain shrimp on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this recipe didn't turn out well. The shrimp was tough and the sauce was too salty.

This recipe was just okay. The shrimp was cooked well, but the sauce was a little bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I've tried this recipe several times and I can't seem to get it right. The shrimp always turns out overcooked and the sauce is always too sweet.

This recipe was a disaster. The shrimp was rubbery and the sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.
