I was looking for a fun, easy weeknight dinner based on our favorite shrimp dish that was healthier than fast food. This has become a favorite! —Susan Seymour, Valatie, New York
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup lime-flavored seltzer water
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2-1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
1-1/4 cups panko bread crumbs
1 pound uncooked shrimp (31-40 per pound), peeled and deveined
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 ounces each), cut into 3/4-inch cubes
Oil for deep-fat frying
Salt and pepper to taste, optional
MAUI MUSTARD:
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, well drained
1/2 cup red pepper jelly
3 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
Directions
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together first 5 ingredients. In another shallow bowl, combine coconut and panko. Dip shrimp in batter to coat. Dip in coconut mixture, patting to help coating adhere. Repeat with chicken.
2. In a deep cast-iron or electric skillet, heat oil to 350°. Fry shrimp, a few at a time, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with chicken. If desired, sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
3. For mustard, mix together pineapple, pepper jelly and stone-ground mustard. Combine shrimp and chicken; serve with Maui mustard.
