Preparation<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Step 1<\/h4>\n

    SPICY LIME MAYO<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Whisk \u00be cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt<\/strong>, \u00bc cup mayonnaise<\/strong>, 2 Tbsp. sambal oelek<\/strong>, \u00bd tsp. toasted sesame oil<\/strong>, 2 tsp. finely grated lime zest<\/strong>, 1 Tbsp. plus 1\u00bd tsp. fresh lime juice<\/strong>, \u00bd tsp. toasted sesame oil<\/strong>, \u00bd tsp. Diamond Crystal or \u00bc tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong>, and 1 garlic clove<\/strong>, finely grated, in a small bowl to combine. Taste and add more sambal oelek and\/or season with more salt if needed. Cover spicy lime mayo and chill until ready to serve.<\/p>\n

    Step 2<\/h4>\n

    SHRIMP AND ASSEMBLY<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Arrange 1\u00bd lb. large shrimp (16\u201320)<\/strong>, peeled, deveined, patted dry, on a rimmed baking sheet and season with 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or \u00bd tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong>. Place \u00bd cup all-purpose flour<\/strong> in a shallow bowl. Lightly beat 2 large eggs<\/strong> in another shallow bowl to blend. Mix 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut<\/strong>, \u00bd cup panko<\/strong>, \u2153 cup white and\/or black sesame seeds<\/strong>, 1 Tbsp. granulated sugar<\/strong>, and remaining 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or \u00bd tsp. Morton kosher salt<\/strong> in a third shallow bowl.<\/p>\n

    Step 3<\/h4>\n

    Working with a couple shrimp at a time, dredge in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into egg, letting excess drip back into bowl, and dredge in coconut mixture, pressing gently on both sides to adhere and evenly coat. Transfer breaded shrimp back to baking sheet as you go. Chill 10 minutes (this will help the breading stick to the shrimp).<\/p>\n

    Step 4<\/h4>\n

    Pour vegetable oil (about 1\u00bc cups)<\/strong> in a large skillet to come \u00bc” up sides and heat over medium-high. Working in 2 batches, cook shrimp until crisp and golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and let drain.<\/p>\n

    Step 5<\/h4>\n

    To serve, divide spicy lime mayo among plates or shallow bowls, spreading it on 1 side and mound shrimp on top. Pile some cabbage wedges, sugar snap peas, cucumber spears, and\/or other crunchy vegetables<\/strong> on other side. (Alternatively, you can serve family-style on a large platter.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
