Buffalo shrimp: crispy, spicy twist on classic wings, perfect for entertaining.
Ingredients:
  • vegetable oil for frying
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1.5 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon milk
  • 30 frozen medium shrimp - thawed, shelled, and deveined
  • 0.25 cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®), or to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375°F (190°C).
  • Mix flour, lemon pepper seasoning, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne in one bowl. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
  • Ensure the shrimp are thoroughly dry by patting them gently with paper towels. Dip each shrimp first in the egg mixture, then in the flour mixture for a uniform coating. Place the coated shrimp on a baking sheet until you are prepared to fry them. Add more flour if necessary to completely cover the shrimp.
  • Fry the shrimp in batches of 8 to 10 in hot oil until beautifully golden and cooked through, approximately 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels before repeating with the rest of the shrimp.
  • Coat shrimp evenly with hot sauce in a large bowl.
