These shrimp were crispy on the outside and full of moist shrimp goodness on the inside. Tasty! One thing though- it took WAY longer than 20 minutes total to make these. The dunking in all the different things took awhile, and because they couldn't all cook at the same time, the cooking also took a bit longer. I used less oil than indicated, because I don't have a deep-fryer or deep skillet, just a normal one, so the result were a bit less deep-fried than intended (which I thought was ok). I also took the suggestion to use less flour (1/2 cup) and I even still ended up with a bit of flour left over. My housemate also really enjoyed them.

fantastic! Followed it exactly and it was excellent. Though next time I'm going to substitute the panko with flour and baking powder and see how that turns out.

Great recipe with the right amount of spices! I used regular bread crumbs and it worked just as well, the prep took longer than I thought but prepping them all before cooking was a great idea! Thanks all!

This was so easy to make. We loved it--so crunchy and flavorful. I substituted Paula Deen's house seasoning for the flour/S&P/garlic powder/paprika because it is so similar, and I had it on hand. I fried the shrimp in my BD deep fryer. This is now my go-to fried shrimp recipe.

Went to Costco, bought 4 lbs of super size shrimp, and wondered how much to freeze for later. Uh, None! Breaded those babies up,served with homemade cocktail sauce, and they were devoured. Awwwwwwsome! And btw, the amount of flour listed for 1 lb was enough for my 4 lbs of shrimp.

Liked it. I baked, instead of frying, but it made no difference, these turn out very well.

The best homemade shrimp I ever made. Stayed so nice and crunchy and NOT greasy. I too like others used Bay Seasoning and let the shrimp sit for 15 min after breading. I used extra large shrimp and cooked for 2 minutes - which was perfect.

I have just finished eating this wonderful shrimp. Unlike other recipes, it does not get soggy sitting on the plate. I placed my panko-coated shrimp on a wire rack for 15 minutes before cooking, so the coating would adhere. It worked beautifully. Don't alter the recipe at all.
