Baked Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Sauce image

I love the big succulent coconut shrimp found at a popular restaurant. Unfortunately, due to health reasons I can't indulge in that shrimp anymore. I created a recipe that satisfies my craving and tastes just as indulgent, but without the guilt! Can be served as an entree or as an appetizer.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup cornstarch
3 egg whites
1 teaspoon coconut extract
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1 cup flaked unsweetened coconut
2 (1 gram) packets sucralose sweetener
16 large shrimp - peeled, deveined, and butterflied with tails on
salt and ground black pepper to taste

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple with juice
½ teaspoon chili garlic sauce
1 (1 gram) packet sucralose sweetener
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place cornstarch in a small bowl. Beat egg whites and coconut extract in a second bowl with a fork until almost forming peaks. Mix bread crumbs, coconut, and sucralose in a third bowl.

Not a fan. The shrimp were overcooked and the pineapple sauce was bland.

The coconut shrimp were delicious, but the pineapple sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll try making it with a different sauce.
