Ingredients
For the Crispy Shrimp
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 eggs, whisked
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Olive oil spray or frying oil
For the Lime Chili Dip
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon sriracha or hot sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Pinch of salt
Directions
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with whisked eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs. Dip each shrimp into the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, pressing gently so the coating sticks.
For the air fryer, cook at 400°F (200°C) for 7–8 minutes, flipping halfway. For the oven, bake at 425°F (220°C) for 10–12 minutes. For frying, cook the shrimp in hot oil for 2–3 minutes until golden and crispy.
To make the dip, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, lime juice, sriracha, garlic, and salt until smooth. Serve the crispy shrimp hot with the lime chili dip, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
