COPYCAT APPLEBEE'S GARLIC AND PEPPERCORN FRIED SHRIMP RECIPE | CDKITCHEN.COM

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees F. In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, salt, half of the black pepper, garlic, paprika, and sugar. Add the beaten eggs to another shallow bowl. In a third bowl, combine the bread crumbs and remaining black pepper. First coat the shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then dip them in the eggs, coating completely and letting any excess drip off. Last, dredge the shrimp in the bread crumb mixture, pressing gently so the crumbs adhere to the shrimp. Place the shrimp in the hot oil, in batches, and cook for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and let drain on paper toweling before serving.
