Description

Ingredients

• 1 lb. – shrimp
• ½ tsp. – Lemon pepper seasoning
• ¼ tsp. salt + ⅛ for egg mix
• 1 extra large – egg (or 2 medium)
• ½ cup – flour
• 1 cup – Progresso Italian style bread crumbs
• Olive oil for frying

Directions

• Wash and drain shrimps. Add lemon pepper and salt. Shake the shrimp in the plate so the seasoning can cover the shrimp.
• Add egg into a small bowl, add salt and then beat the egg and salt together well.
• Cover the shrimp with flour. Shake off excess of flour. Dip the floured shrimp into egg mix. Then coat with Italian style crumbs. Place it onto a plate until ready to fry.
• Pour one quart of oil into a small sauce pan. Heat oil on low/med heat for few minutes. Drop shrimp one by one (to avoid splashing touch the oil and then drop).

• Cool before serving. Enjoy them warm with your favorite sauce.
