These shrimp were a bit bland. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the breading.

I made these shrimp for my family and they loved them! Even my picky kids ate them all up. I'll definitely be making them again.

These shrimp were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think next time I'll use a different dipping sauce.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these shrimp. The coconut coating was light and flaky, and the shrimp were cooked just right.

These shrimp were amazing! The coconut coating was so flavorful and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. I served them with a mango salsa and it was the perfect combination.

I followed the recipe exactly and the shrimp turned out overcooked and dry. I think next time I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time.
