Instructions

  1. First, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with nonstick spray.
  2. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
  3. Rinse the shrimp under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels.
  4. Dip each shrimp into the dry mixture, making sure to coat them evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
  5. Place the coated shrimp on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Leave a little space between each.

  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until they are cooked through and the coating is crispy. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
  8. While the shrimp is baking, make the buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the hor sauce, honey, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is well combined and heated through.
  9. Once the shirmp is done baking, remove from the oven. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl.
  10. Finally, pour the buffalo sauce over the baked shrimp. Toss to coat evenly. Serve!

Notes

  • Use fresh or fully thawed shrimp.  Do not make directly from frozen.
  • Both all purpose flour and gluten free flour work well.  I used gluten free for these photos.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of spice in the sauce.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
