Crispy Panko Shrimp
Now here’s my kind of appetizer/party food! I love anything that’s got a perfectly golden brown crisp crust and dunked in some kind of delicious sauce. Here you get the tastiest, skillet seared, crispy panko crusted shrimp that’s seasoned with herbs and spices and it’s paired with a simple yet flavorful cocktail sauce. What I’m getting at is that it’s sure to be a crowd pleaser!
Cooked shrimp coated with panko being dipped in cocktail sauce in a white small bowl.
This shrimp is the perfect appetizer for tailgating, just pile them high on a platter and of course nix the forks and let everyone dive in. These are so good that you may find yourself caring a little less about who’s winning and thinking more of how delicious the food is, just maybe :). And if your team doesn’t win you’ll be saying “at least the shrimp was really good.” So it’s not a bad loss all around.
