Notes

Use large or jumbo shrimp for the best results. Maintain a steady oil temperature for perfectly fried shrimp. Make extra sauce for dipping. For prep ahead, bread and refrigerate shrimp before frying or freeze uncooked. This recipe is also very versatile; feel free to adjust spice levels in the sauce to your preference.
