(1) Small bag of rice flour

(1) Beer of any kind

(1) Tsp. baking powder

Coconut shavings

Canola oil

 

Directions:

1.) Bring the canola oil to just below a boil in a shallow frier. This will ensure a golden brown, along with a thorough cook-through.

2.) Clean, rinse, and de-vein your jumbo shrimp.

6.) Dip your jumbo shrimp into the beer/rice flour/baking powder mixture.
