Morrison's Cafeteria Fried Shrimp image

Dunno where Morrison's Cafeteria is but this makes some mighty nice fried shrimp. Adapted from the Miami Herald. I like to use my deep fat fryer outside on the deck - all the crunchy shrimpy goodness outside & no greasy kitchen cleanup! Shrimp are coming in here fast & furious for a while longer - this is a great way to use them.

These shrimp were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them.

I'm not a huge fan of fried food, but these shrimp were really good. The breading was crispy and the shrimp were cooked perfectly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shrimp turned out soggy. I think I might have used too much oil.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I'll try a different one next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to the breading and it turned out much better.
