How to make Shrimp Scampi Fritta
Place breading into a large zip-bag and toss shrimp to coat. Set aside.
Preheat 1 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry shrimp 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden and shrunken in size.
Drizzle with sweet chili sauce before serving.
Notes
Can substitute 1/2 cup of flour, cornstarch or a mixture of cornmeal and flour for the seafood breader. Season with spices to taste. Homemade bisquick will also work as a breading.
Dip shrimp into a beaten egg before breading for a thicker coat of breading or beat an egg into the batter with an addition of water if needed for a fluffier batter.
