Learn how to make irresistibly crispy Panko Shrimp at home with this easy recipe. These golden-fried shrimp are coated in crunchy panko breadcrumbs and served with a zesty sriracha mayo dipping sauce.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Shrimp:

  • ½ lb jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 ¼ cups panko breadcrumbs (or more as needed)
  • 2 cups vegetable oil (or any neutral oil, for frying)

For the Flour Mixture:

  • 2 tablespoons potato starch (or cornstarch)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (or onion powder)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

For the Dipping Sauce:

  • ¼ cup Japanese mayonnaise (or regular mayonnaise)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce

Instructions

  1. Prep the shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. If not already done, peel and devein them, leaving the tails on if desired.
  2. Prepare the flour mixture: In a small bowl, mix potato starch, all-purpose flour, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  3. Coat the shrimp: Dredge each shrimp in the flour mixture, then dip into the beaten egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs. Press the panko onto the shrimp to ensure it sticks well.
  4. Heat the oil: In a deep skillet or saucepan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer if available for accuracy.
  5. Fry the shrimp: Fry the shrimp in batches for 2–3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  6. Make the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together Japanese mayo and sriracha until well combined.
  7. Serve: Serve the panko shrimp hot with the spicy mayo dipping sauce on the side.
