For spicier shrimp, add 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper to flour mixture. To make Coconut Shrimp gluten-free, replace the all-purpose flour with rice flour.
Try using your favorite fruit preserves or marmalade for the dipping sauce. For a spicy dipping sauce, add 1 tablespoon Sriracha chile sauce.
To fry Coconut Shrimp: Heat large skillet over medium-high 3 minutes. Add 1 cup canola oil and heat 3 to 5 minutes or until oil reaches 325°. In batches, cook shrimp 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown, turning once halfway through cooking.
