Instructions
- Turn oven on to “keep warm” or about 170℉.
- Put a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add enough coconut oil so that it covers the bottom of the pan.
- Remove 2 Tbsp. of the Keto Chow and set aside for the sauce.
- In a bowl that has a lid, add together the remaining Keto Chow and 1/2 cup coconut. Mix well.
- Rinse the shrimp and drain but do not dry. If frozen, rinse with cold water until no longer frozen.
- Add shrimp to the coconut mixture. Put the lid on and gently toss the bowl so the shrimp are evenly coated.
- Fry the shrimp in the heated coconut oil, 1/3 of the batch at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook one to two minutes on each side. Flip gently using tongs, one piece at a time. Place on a sheet pan, sprinkle with salt, and put in the warm oven while you fry the rest.
- To make the dipping sauce,heat the coconut oil over medium heat in a medium saucepan.
- Add 2 Tbsp. of Pina Colada Keto Chow and mix until bubbling.
- Add seltzer water, heavy cream, and chili paste. Whisk frequently until the mixture boils.
- Let boil for a few minutes and turn off heat until shrimp is ready.
- Serve with a wedge or two of lime if desired.
Notes
*Bob’s Red Mills shredded coconut works best for this. If you’re using a different brand, that’s totally fine! Just take a second to chop your shredded coconut a little finer.**Or substitute Pineapple Coconut Clear American Sparkling Water.
