Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 cup crushed pork rinds about 42 grams
  • 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil for frying

For The Cocktail Sauce:

  • 2 teaspoons sweetener
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar

  • Pat shrimp dry. Toss in arrowroot powder.
  • Dredge shrimp in egg wash.
  • Dredge shrimp in coconut mixture. Use your hands to pat the mixture onto the shrimp so it sticks. Make sure they are well coated.
  • Heat coconut oil over medium-high heat in a frying pan until sizzling. Fry shrimp 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Cook in batches if needed. Be careful not to overcook.
  • Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to absorb grease. Serve immediately with sugar-free cocktail sauce (recipe below) and a lemon wedge.
