Author: Reed Dunn

Ingredients

  • ½ pound shrimp peeled with tail on
  • 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, fold shredded coconut and coconut flour. Dry shrimp with a paper towel.
  • Roll shrimp into egg and transfer to coconut mixture bowl. Cover and gently press coconut into the shrimp. Place shrimp on a baking sheet. Repeat until all shrimp have been coated. Note: leave space between shrimp so they will crisp and cook more evenly.
  • Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, turning once at the midway point. Serve.

Notes

For the dipping sauce: mix 1/2 cup Primal Kitchens Foods mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons Primal Kitchens ketchup. Whisk in juice of half a lime and a pinch of salt.
