Crunchy Fried Shrimp

Gather all ingredients.

Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Beat eggs in a second medium bowl until frothy. Place bread crumbs in a third bowl.

Dredge shrimp in the flour mixture, then shake off excess.

Dip shrimp into beaten eggs.

Then press shrimp into bread crumbs, turning to coat both sides.

Heat 2 inches oil in a large, heavy pot to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Deep-fry shrimp in batches in the hot oil until cooked through, about 1 minute. Use tongs to transfer shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat to cook remaining shrimp.

Arrange shrimp on a platter to serve.
