There’s just something about fried fish that makes it hard to resist. I think it’s the savoriness and crispy-crunch of a fried snack that makes you want to keep coming back for more. And when it comes to shrimp, these succulent crustaceans are the perfect protein to fry.

The first step to making fried shrimp is picking the quintessential coating, and Japanese panko breadcrumbs are the ideal crumb for the job. And while fried shrimp are delicious on their own, you can totally take them to the next level with a simple yet delicious dipping sauce. So that’s why I decided to make these Crispy Fried Shrimp with Sriracha Lime Mayo!

These crispy fried shrimp have a perfectly golden-brown crust and tender interior. Plus, they take little to no time to make. I recommend serving them with a Sriracha Lime Mayo, a creamy dipping sauce with the perfect balance of acid and heat.
