Ingredients
  

SHRIMP:

  • cup all purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • cup coconut milk
  • ¾ cup shredded, sweetened coconut
  • ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • salt
  • 24 medium shrimp
  • cooking spray

DIPPING SAUCE:

  • ½ cup orange marmalade
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish

Instructions
 

PREPARE THE SHRIMP:

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray.
  • Place the flour in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the egg and coconut milk. In a 3rd bowl, combine the coconut and panko.
  • Sprinkle the shrimp with salt. Hold the shrimp by the tail, dredge in flour and shake off the excess. Dip in the egg/coconut milk, shake to let the excess drip off, and then roll the shrimp in the coconut/panko mixture. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining shrimp. Spray the top of the coconut shrimp lightly with cooking spray.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the baking sheet from the oven. Turn all of the shrimp over, and then continue to bake for 6 to 8 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

PREPARE THE SAUCE:

  • While the shrimp is baking, prepare the sauce. Combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Serve baked coconut shrimp with the sauce for dipping.
