With the healthy side of eating coming to the forefront we don’t do much deep frying anymore. Yet every once n awhile we just crave something with that tasty deep fried crunch. These shrimp will definitely feed that craving. Serve with cocktail sauce, tarter sauce or make a Cajun sauce using 1/3 C of mayonnaise and 1 tsp of Cajun seasoning.
