Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

24 large (15 to 20 count) shrimp, peeled, deviened, and butterflied
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground white pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 egg whites
2 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut, or 2 1/2 cups shredded fresh coconut
Canola or peanut oil, for frying
Peanut Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup chicken stock
3 ounces unsweetened coconut milk
1 ounce lime juice
1 ounce soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce or 2 to 3 anchovies, ground
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chopped ginger
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl combine cornstarch, salt, pepper, and cayenne. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy. In another bowl, place the coconut. Coat the shrimp with the cornstarch and shake off any excess. Dip into the egg white and then press into the coconut to get full coverage. Try to keep 1 hand dry, this will keep things a little cleaner.
  • In a large pan, heat the oil to 350 degrees F and gently submerge the shrimp, 6 at a time. Fry for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove them to a rack to drain. Serve with Peanut Sauce.
  • In a food processor, puree the chicken stock, coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, hot sauce, chopped garlic, and ginger. Add the peanut butter and pulse to combine. Fold in the cilantro and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
  • Bring sauce to room temperature and serve with coconut shrimp.

COCONUT LIME SHRIMP



Coconut Lime Shrimp image

This is not fried coconut shrimp. It's something very different - it's a little tangy, a little sweet, and a little salty. It's very easy and quick to put together.The prep time does not include marinating time in the refrigerator, so plan a few extra minutes for that. I cooked these on a George Foreman grill (high 4 minutes), and I only used about half of the salt mixture, because we generally don't eat a lot of salt, so use your judgement. Also, if your grated zest is fine enough, you do not need to use a food processor.

Categories     Brunch

Time 11m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 limes
2 lbs shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup coconut flakes, toasted in a dry skillet

Steps:

  • Use a grater or zester and zest all the limes and set the zest aside.
  • Squeeze two of the limes, and combine the juice with coconut milk and the shrimp. Refrigerate for 15 - 30 minutes.
  • In a food processor, combine the lime zest, salt and pepper. Pulse until blended.
  • Remove shrimp from marinade, and place on a hot oiled grill, grill pan, or use a skillet. Cook for 3 minutes on each side. While shrimp are still on the grill, squeeze the remaining lime over shrimp.
  • When shrimp are done, remove from grill and sprinkle with the salt-pepper-lime mixture and the toasted coconut.

COCONUT-LIME SHRIMP



Coconut-Lime Shrimp image

You can make this gingery, lightly sweet shrimp stew as tangy and spicy as you like by adjusting the amounts of chile and lime juice. Using full-fat coconut milk gives you the richest and most flavorful dish. But light coconut milk will also work, resulting in something brothier and more souplike. Be sure not to overcook the shrimp. As soon as they turn pink, they're done.

Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Peanut Sauce image

Categories     Bread     Sauce     Appetizer     Fry     Coconut     Peanut     Shrimp

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 25

24 large (31- to 35-count) shrimp, peeled, deveined, and butterflied (do not remove tail)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup beer (not dark)
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
1 cup Japanese panko bread crumbs
Canola or peanut oil, for frying
2 cups Spicy Peanut Sauce (recipe follows)
Spicy Peanut Sauce
1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
1/4 cup Chicken Stock (page 28)
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
Zest of 1 lime
Juice of 1 lime
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons Sriracha (Vietnamese chile sauce), or to taste
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (leaves and tender stems)
(makes about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, five-spice powder, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and beer until smooth. In another bowl, combine the shredded coconut with the bread crumbs. Holding the shrimp by the tail, dip them into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off, and then dip them into the coconut bread crumbs (turning and pressing to get full coverage). Keeping one hand dry will make this whole process neater.
  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 inch of oil to 365°F. Gently submerge shrimp, about six at a time, and fry for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer the shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle lightly with additional salt. Serve the shrimp warm, with Spicy Peanut Sauce.
  • Spicy Peanut Sauce
  • Place the garlic and ginger in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the stock, coconut milk, lime zest and juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, and sriracha, and purée. Add the peanut butter, and pulse to combine. Fold in the cilantro, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Bring the sauce to room temperature, and serve it with the coconut shrimp.
