Try this easy, tasty dish that will bring smiles of satisfaction to all. My inspiration for this recipe came from some of my family’s favorite ingredients…shrimp and honey-mustard. The result is a delicious well-balanced recipe with a sweet dipping sauce, peppery shrimp, and a hint of fragrance from the cilantro. Best of all, it’s a breeze to make even during the most hectic weekday nights….This brings a smile to my face!
Ingredients:
2 tbsp FRENCH'S® Honey Mustard
3/4 cup mango marmalade
3 tsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/3 cup preferred cooking oil
1 cup plain bread crumbs
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 lb shrimp, peeled, deveined
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the mango, mustard, and 2 teaspoons cilantro. Stir until well combined. Cover and set aside.
In a medium shallow bowl, toss the bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until well combined. Cover; set aside. Pour the buttermilk in a second medium shallow bowl.
Pour cooking oil in a large sauté pan. Preheat pan on medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes.
Meanwhile, dip shrimp in buttermilk then dip into bread crumb mixture. Continue until all shrimp are coated.
When oil is hot, add the shrimp to pan and cook 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden. Drain on paper towels.
Serve shrimp on a large platter with mango-honey mustard dipping sauce. Sprinkle remaining 1 teaspoon cilantro over shrimp. Enjoy!
If mango marmalade is unavailable in your area, you can substitute the mango marmalade with apricot preserves.
