How to Make Japanese-Style Deep-Fried Shrimp
1
In a bowl, season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
2
Prepare three separate bowls for dredging: one with a mixture of flour and paprika, another with beaten eggs, and the third with panko crumbs.
3
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4
Coat each shrimp by dipping it first into the flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally into the panko crumbs.
5
Fry a few shrimp at a time in the hot oil until they turn golden brown, approximately 5 minutes per batch. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and place on paper towels to drain excess oil before serving.
