Processing the panko and cilantro creates fine crumbs that adhere well to the shrimp. To save time, buy a peeled, cored fresh pineapple and presliced mango for the slaw. Enjoy the rest of it later in the week as part of a fresh fruit salad.
Ingredients:
1 cup panko (japanese breadcrumbs)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 pound extra-large shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 15)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg, beaten
2 teaspoons water
2 tablespoons canola oil
Directions:
1. Combine panko and cilantro in a food processor; pulse 2 to 3 times or until cilantro is finely minced. Transfer to a shallow dish.
2. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper. Combine egg and water in a shallow dish. Dip half of shrimp in egg mixture; dredge in crumb mixture, and place in a single layer on a plate. Repeat procedure with remaining shrimp, egg mixture, and crumb mixture.
3. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, and cook 2 minutes on each side or until done. Drain shrimp on paper towels.
4. Serve with: Tropical Slaw
