Ingredients
Shrimp
- 1 1/2 pounds large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 Tablespoons Vegetable oil, divided
- Thinly sliced green onions, for garnish
Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3 Tablespoons honey
- 1 Tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
Glazed walnuts
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 cup walnut halves
Instructions
Glazed Walnuts
- Stir the water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Add walnuts and continue to boil for 2 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper using a slotted spoon and spread in a single layer. Set aside.
Honey Sauce
- In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, honey and sweetened condensed milk.
Crispy Shrimp
- In a large ziploc bag, combine the cornstarch and salt. Add the shrimp to the bag, then seal and shake to coat evenly in the cornstarch.
- Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add half of the shrimp to the skillet, shaking off excess cornstarch first, taking care not to crowd the pan. Cook until the shrimp curl into a 'c' shape and are pink and crisp on the outside, about 2 minutes per side side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining two tablespoons of oil and the remaining shrimp.
- Combine the crispy fried shrimp and honey sauce and toss to coat. Sprinkle with candied walnuts and green onions and serve.
