Recipe Introduction
I love this idea, instead of Deep Frying the Shrimp!
List of Ingredients
3/4 cup apricot preserves
1 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
Dash of ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 egg
1 Tbsp lime juice
1 cup shredded coconut
1 lb uncooked peeled deveined medium shrimp (31 to 35), thawed if frozen
2 Tbsp butter, melted
Recipe
In 1 qt saucepan, mix apricot preserves, 1 Tablespoon lime juice and the mustard. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, just until preserves are melted. Refrigerate while making shrimp.
Move oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 425. Spray rack in broiler pan with cooking spray.
In shallow bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, salt and red pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat egg and 1 tablespoon lime juice. In third shallow bowl, place coconut.
Coat each shrimp with flour mixture, then dip each side into egg mixture and coat well with coconut. Place on rack in broiler pan. Drizzle with butter.
Bake 7-8 mins or until shrimp are pink and firm and coating is beginning to brown.
Serve with preserves mixture.
