Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat generously with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Take the shrimp out of the package and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
  3. Set up a dredge station. In a shallow bowl, mix the cornstarch, salt, and garlic powder. In another shallow bowl, beat the egg whites until they're foamy. In a third shallow bowl, spread out the coconut flakes.
  4. Dip one shrimp first into the cornstarch until coated. Then dip into the egg whites, and finally dip in the coconut until well-coated. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
  5. Place the shrimp in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving room between them so that they don't touch.
  6. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the coating is golden brown. Remove from the oven.

Garlic Plum Dipping Sauce

  1. While the shrimp cooks, pour the plum sauce into a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the soy sauce, honey, garlic, and green onion. Bring to a boil.
  2. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the sauce to a bowl.
  3. Plate the coconut shrimp on a serving platter with the bowl of plum sauce and serve immediately.
