What it is
Jumbo shrimp coated in a light, crispy almond flour breading and fried until golden brown. A popular American appetizer or entrée, served without sugary cocktail sauce, perhaps with a lemon wedge or keto-friendly aioli.
Key ingredients
Jumbo shrimp, almond flour, egg, crushed pork rinds (optional, for extra crisp), oil for frying (e.g., avocado or canola), salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder. Lemon wedges or keto aioli for serving.
How to make it keto
Crucially, confirm almond flour (or another keto-compliant flour) breading is used, or ask for naked fried shrimp. Request no sugary cocktail sauce; opt for fresh lemon wedges, hot sauce, or a house-made keto aioli. Verify frying oil is appropriate.
Watch out for
Traditional wheat flour breading, sugary cocktail sauce, non-keto dipping sauces, high-carb sides (e.g., fries).
