delicious fried shrimps with cheese and butter

Ingredients:

– 1 pound large shrimps, peeled and deveined
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
– Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the shrimps: In a bowl, mix together flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss the shrimps in the flour mixture to coat.
2. Dip in cheese: Dip each flour-coated shrimp in the grated cheese, pressing the cheese onto the shrimp to ensure it sticks.
3. Dip in breadcrumbs: Dip the cheese-coated shrimp in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing the crumbs onto the shrimp to ensure they stick.
4. Fry the shrimps: Heat about 1/2-inch (1 cm) of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the shrimps until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
5. Add butter: Remove the fried shrimps from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Melt the butter in the same skillet and toss the fried shrimps in the butter until coated.
6. Serve: Serve the fried shrimps hot, garnished with chopped parsley or chives if desired.

Tips:

– Use high-quality cheese for the best flavor.
– Don’t overcoat the shrimps with breadcrumbs, as this can make them greasy.
– If you want to make this recipe extra crispy, you can chill the coated shrimps in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before frying.
