Crispy Shrimp Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Warm each tortilla on both sides in a dry skillet over medium heat, about 30 seconds per side. Spray the tortillas with cooking spray. Make a single tear from the edge to the center (like a bicycle spoke) in each tortilla. Nestle the tortillas into muffin cups, overlapping the torn edges so the tortillas fit into the cups.
• Bake until the edges are crisp and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Carefully lift out the tortilla cups and invert them so they are resting, bottom up, on the muffin pan. Continue to bake until the bottoms are crisp, about 8 minutes more.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions, bell peppers and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the shrimp and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice and cilantro.
• Spoon the shrimp mixture into the tortilla cups and serve.

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a medium bowl until frothy. Mix flour, salt and pepper in another medium bowl. Dredge shrimp in flour, shake off excess. Dip shrimp into eggs, then press shrimp into Panko; turn shrimp over and press into Panko again to coat both sides.
• Pour enough oil into heavy large pot to reach depth of 2 inches; heat to 350 degrees F. Working in batches, add shrimp to hot oil; deep-fry until cooked through, about 1 minute. Using tongs transfer shrimp to paper towels to drain. Arrange shrimp on platter. If desired, serve with Kikkoman Tonkatsu Sauce for dipping.

Steps:

• Remove the shells from the shrimp but leave the last segment and the tails on.
• Split the shrimp down the back until almost completely open.
• Remove the vein.
• Place the shrimp in a bowl of ice water.
• Combine the dry ingredients for the batter.
• Mix well, then add the oil a little at a time until oil and flour are thoroughly mixed; break up any large lumps.
• Now add the water a little at a time, stirring contantly in one direction.
• Eventually the batter will become smooth and silky.
• Stop adding water when you attain this consistency of a thin pancake batter.
• Allow the batter to rest, covered, for atleast 15 minutes.
• Prepare either or both sauces to serve with your shrimp.
• Shred the lettuce and place on a platter.
• Cover with plastic wrap until ready to use.
• Place the oil in a wok and heat to 375F.
• While the oil is heating, drain the shrimp, pat dry and dip in the batter, leaving the tail exposed for easy handling.
• Line a work platter with paper toweling.
• Place 8-10 shrimp in the hot oil and cook until the batter turns a golden brown.
• Remove with large strainer to the work platter.
• Do the remaining shrimp in the same manner, making sure the oil reaches 375F before adding next batch.
• Remove the plastic wrap from the lettuce and nest the shrimp in the lettuce.
• Serve with the sauce (s).
