I would choose 2 or three of these to make at home.
Teriyaki Glazed Grilled Shrimp
Put your shrimp on skewers and brush with your favorite bottle of teriayki sauce.
Place skewers on a George Forman grill and cook until done.
Cajun Butter Sauce Shrimp
For this dish, I put the shrimp on skewers and marinate for about an hour.
Cajun Butter Sauce
1 stick of melted butter
1 tablespoon of cajun spice blend
1 to 3 drops of tabasco (to taste)
Cook the marinated shrimp skewers on a George Forman grill.
Watch them carefully because they cook very quickly!
Coconut Shrimp Bites
This recipe looks complicated but it is not. You can throw these ingredients together and be done cooking in less than 15 minutes.
Jumbo butterflied shrimp hand-dipped in batter flavored with Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Rum & coconut flakes. Served with a pina colada dipping sauce.
Fans of this dish say the best part is the pina colada dipping sauce. Red Lobster's secret formula includes Captain Morgan's Parrot Bay rum which sweetens the batter and adds a great coconut flavor. Panko breadcrumbs give a nice crunch to the batter and can be found in the Asian foods section of your market. This recipe makes two times the size of a serving you get at Red Lobster.
Pina Colada Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup liquid pina colada mix
2 tablespoons sugar
Shrimp
6 to 10 cups canola oil
12 large shrimp, peeled, deveined and butterflied
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 talespoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons Captain Morgan's Parrot Bay coconut rum
1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
1/2 cup shredded coconut
Prepare pina colada dipping sauce first by combining all the ingredients. Cover and chill in the fridge.
Heat oil to 350 degrees.
You will need 3 different bowls for making the batters.
Bowl 1 3/4 cup of flour only
Bowl 2 3/4 cup of flour, sugar, salt, milk, and rum
Bowl 3 panko bread crumbs and coconut
To batter the shrimp, dip each one in the flour first, wet mixture second, bread crumbs third.
Fry the shrimp in hot oil for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp is golden brown. Place on paper towels to drain.
Serve shrimp with pina colada dipping sauce on the side.
Garlic Shrimp Scampi
The video series below has some good information. Garlic Shrimp is usually made with an olive oil or butter based sauce in which the shrimp are cooked. It is then served with pasta and garnished with herbs and cheese.
Battered Shrimp
I wrote another hubpage article about beer battered shrimp similiar to Long John Silvers. Feel free to check it out if you are interested in making this dish. It is quite simple and very tasty.
