The Fire is Set

To kick things off, preheat a fryer to a sizzling 375°F with your choice of peanut or vegetable oil. At the same time, prepare your grill with a flat cast iron top to achieve that perfect golden brown on your soft tortilla shells.

Shrimp Transformation

In one bowl, create a batter by mixing flour, buttermilk, and cornstarch until well combined. Dip the defrosted shrimp into this flavorful mixture, coating them thoroughly. In another bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Transfer the battered shrimp to the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.

The Golden Crisp

Carefully remove the shrimp from the breadcrumb mixture and place them one by one into the hot oil of the preheated fryer. Fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 1-2 minutes. Once perfectly crispy, transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
