Caribbean Shrimp
- 1 lb. fresh or frozen raw shrimp (21 to 30 in shells)
- vegetable oil
- 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
- 1/2 c. nonalcoholic pina colada drink mix
- 1 1/2 c. shredded coconut
- 1 (12 oz.) jar orange marmalade
- Peel shrimp, leaving tails on.
- (If shrimp are frozen, do not thaw; peel under running cold water.)
- Make a shallow cut lengthwise down back of each shrimp.
- Wash out vein and pat dry. Heat oil (2 to 3-inches) in deep fryer or Dutch oven to 325u0b0. Mix flour mixture (flour, salt and ginger).
- Coat shrimp in flour mixture; dip into pina colada mix.
- Pat coconut onto shrimp, covering completely.
- Coconut adheres to shrimp if shrimp are fried immediately after being coated.
- Fry the shrimp about 2 minutes, turning once, until coconut is browned. Dip in marmalade or cocktail sauce.
