Ingredients
For the shrimp
- 1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
- coconut oil for cooking
For the sauce
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Tabasco hot sauce
- 1 clove garlic minced
- small handful sliced green onions (optional garnish)
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, combine the shrimp and buttermilk and let sit while you make the sauce. Alternatively, store it for up to 3 or 4 four hours in the fridge.
- To make the sauce, whisk together the sour cream, vinegar, honey, soy sauce, Tabasco, and garlic in a large bowl.
- Spread the flour out on a plate. Shake the buttermilk off the shrimp and roll it in the flour until well coated. I find it's helpful to keep one hand designated as your "wet hand" (buttermilk) and one hand as your "dry hand" (flour).
- Heat a thin layer of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan fry the shrimp until golden brown on both sides and done, white and firm all the way through the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. (Tip: Try not to flip them until you see they are golden brown on the bottom. The more you handle and move around anything with a coating like this the more chance it could flake off!)
- Toss the shrimp in the bowl with the sauce until coated, top with green onions (if desired), and serve.
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
