Crispy Cornmeal Shrimp and Lemon Rice

Sorry. no picture this time. Along with Salmon, shrimp is another food we love to eat! There are so many different shrimp recipes, it is hard to make the same one again. However, this one was very easy and delicious, so I may have to try it again soon. I served it with lemon rice, and it was the perfect accompaniment.

Crispy Cornmeal Shrimp

¼ cup flour 

¼ cup cornmeal 

1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

1 pound raw peeled and deveined medium or large shrimp

2 beaten eggs

 In a bowl, whisk together ¼ cup flour, ¼ cup cornmeal, and 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Dip 1 pound raw peeled and deveined medium or large shrimp in 2 beaten eggs, then coat in the cornmeal mixture. In a skillet, cook the shrimp in ½ inch of canola oil until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Dip in tartar sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Serve with lemon rice.
