lightbulb_outline Tips
- For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of chili powder to the shredded coconut.
- Make sure to pat the shrimp dry before coating with flour, as this helps the coconut adhere better.
- If you prefer a spicier dipping sauce, add more sriracha sauce to taste.
- Serve the coconut shrimp with a side of fresh mango salsa for a complete tropical meal.
