**Keto Fried Shrimp**
*Servings: 4*
**Ingredients:**
– 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 1 cup almond flour
– 2 eggs
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– Cooking oil (for frying)
– Lemon wedges, for serving
**Instructions:**
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs until well beaten. Set aside.
2. In another shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure that the seasonings are evenly distributed.
3. Take each shrimp and dip it first into the egg mixture, making sure it is completely coated. Allow any excess egg to drip off.
4. Next, coat the shrimp in the seasoned almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres well to the shrimp.
5. Place the coated shrimp on a plate or baking sheet and repeat the process with the remaining shrimp.
6. In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. You want enough oil to submerge the shrimp halfway when frying.
7. Carefully place the coated shrimp in the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may need to fry the shrimp in batches.
8. Fry the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the shrimp should reach 145°F (63°C).
9. Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
10. Serve the Keto Fried Shrimp hot, garnished with fresh lemon wedges for a burst of citrusy flavor. These shrimp are best enjoyed immediately while still hot and crispy.
