With just 4 ingredients, these coconut shrimp are incredibly easy to make, but your guests will be all "You fancy, huh?"

Ingredients:
  • 1.5 lbs uncooked shrimp, peeled and de-veined (I also like to take the tails off)
  • 1/2 c. corn starch
  • 14 oz. bag sweetened coconut
  • 3 egg whites

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375.
  2. Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites until peaks form.
  3. Pour corn starch, egg whites, and coconut into 3 separate, shallow bowls.
  4. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
  5. Spray cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
  6. Coat each shrimp in corn starch, then egg whites, then coconut and place on cookie sheet.
  7. Repeat dipping process until all shrimp have gotten the full treatment.
  8. Cook shrimp for 8 minutes, then flip them, and cook for another 5 minutes.
  9. BONUS: If you're feeling fancy, you can serve the shrimp with a dipping sauce - my favorite is 1/2 c. apricot jam with 1 tsp. diced jalapeno for a little kick!
