Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 20m

Yield Two servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup dried unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 pound medium-large shrimps (about 14 to 16), shelled and deveined, tails intact
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon crushed or grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Spread out the coconut flakes in a 10-inch microwave-proof pie plate or dish. Toast, uncovered, at 100 percent power in a 650- to 700-watt microwave carousel oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly golden. Stir once during the cooking time. (The coconut will color unevenly.) Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • Place the shrimps in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well to coat the shrimps. Lift the shrimps by their tails and dip them one at a time in the toasted coconut. Coat them evenly but lightly. Arrange the shrimps in the microwave-proof pie plate or dish, petal fashion, with the tails toward the center of the pan.
  • Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in the microwave oven for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimps are just done. They should be pink and firm. Remove and serve.

NEELY'S JUMBO COCONUT SHRIMP AND DIPPING SAUCE



Neely's Jumbo Coconut Shrimp and dipping sauce image

This is from the program of Food Network stars, Pat and Gina Neeley. I have made it a few times, and it is "off the hook" as Guy says. This was done in Feb of 2010. If you make it, be sure to include the dipping sauce because it is excellent as well.
