For the Coconut Shrimp:
1 lb Shrimp, deveined and peeled with tails left on
2 tsp Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt
½ cup Flour
3 Egg Whites
2 Tbsp Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning
1 cup Shredded Coconut
½ cup Panko
¼ cup Cilantro, chopped
Lemon Wedges, to serve
For the Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce:
2 tsp Water
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 Tbsp Ketchup
2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
6 Tbsp Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic — available in 100ml · 250ml · 500ml · 750ml
¼ cup Pineapple Juice
¼ tsp Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels then season with Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: flour in the first, egg whites whisked with Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning in the second, and shredded coconut combined with panko in the third.
Dip each shrimp in the flour, then the egg white mixture, then the coconut-panko mixture. Lay on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over high heat, whisk together the water and cornstarch until smooth. Add the ketchup, soy sauce, Pineapple Habanero White Barrel Aged Balsamic, pineapple juice, and Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt. Bring to a boil and let the sauce reduce 4-5 minutes until thickened.
Serve shrimp with fresh cilantro, lemon wedges, and Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce. Enjoy!
