Directions

  1. Mix egg and water together to make a light egg wash. Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish.

  2. Dip shrimp into the egg wash and toss into breadcrumbs.

  3. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan over medium heat. Add shrimp and fry until firm and opaque, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove shrimp and keep warm.

  4. Rinse out the pan. Heat butter and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the pan. Add lime juice, bring to a boil. Continue boiling for 1 minute. Return cooked shrimp to the pan and stir to coat with the lime sauce. Serve immediately.

Recipe Note

Panko-coated pan-fried shrimp with a delicious lime butter that is tasty enough but does not overpower the flavors of the shrimp. Serve over a mixed greens salad or with angel hair pasta with cream sauce and a fresh vegetable for a larger meal.
